Echoes of Tradition

In the heart of a village, where thatched roofs meet the sky, A young soul stands, adorned, with a story to imply. The disk in her lip, a symbol of her land, A rite of passage, a cultural stand. Her eyes, deep pools, of ancient tales untold, Reflecting the wisdom, of a heritage to hold. The necklace around her neck, a weave of tradition, A bond to her ancestors, a cultural condition. In this portrait, a world of meaning resides, A testament to identity, where culture abides. The artist's brush, a tool of preservation, Captures the essence, of a moment's observation. A window to the past, a bridge to the present, This artwork stands, as a legacy to present.
