Dawn is a Child

Dawn is the child of sunrise...
Like the dawn I'm a child,
rising up as she rises.

San Vicente, Ilocos Sur 

Old church of San Vicente, Ilocos Sur 2017.  View from my window. 


Dawn is the child of sunrise,
azure, crimson, emerald,
curtain of a new day,
a call for all to rise.

Through the church's window,
she joins hymns and psalms,
prayers of the faithful
seated row by row.

Over the mountain range
a reclining profile rises,
her gown of darkness fades
and soon will change.

Like the dawn I'm a child,
rising up as she rises,
to her ephemeral beauty
devoid of any pride. ~
