Rows of vibrant fruits and vegetables stretch under the canopy, the air thick with the scent of fresh herbs and mountain breeze.

Vendors call out greetings, their laughter

Pumpkin $5.00 dollar a lb

Hands exchange firm bananas for soft,

while children dart between stalls.

A woman hums to herself,

cradling a basket of produce, the sunlight dancing on her face.

Women like me and Angela come after Sunday Church

We come for more than just market

Ibeneath the chatter,

Sunday Market is its own kind of Holy Healing

like a prayer being said by the many.
