Making Textiles
Kneeling on the hard ground making textiles is an arduous task when the sun is beaming, but the heat is worse indoors. The brick wall of my home blocks the air flow and sweat trickles down my forehead.
My husband Mario is walking up the path after a long day of working in the fields.
“Maria, please come inside now. It is time to cook dinner.”
“I’ll be just a minute.”
I pack my belongings and go home.
Mario and our boy are laughing and singing a mellifluous tune while setting the dinner table.
My heart is full of love.
