Goddess of Humility

She stood still before the choas; unshaken.

The wind blew its mighty breath against Her core but to no avail; unmoved.

Her coffee'd skin warm like the sun that kisses the Earth's horizon.

Something within Her had risen without warning nor permission:

She was a Goddess, in Her own right.

 

Brown. The soft tone of the Earth.

Golden hue painted widely across the canvas of Her *****

Her skin like caramelized silk, with the sunglow of Egypt itself.

 

She pressed Her face to the Earth's floor and moved mountains with Her prayers.

Queen of the meek, ambassador of the poor.

She was the perfect amalgam of beauty and brokenness.

~The Goddess of Humility.
