Dawn - Child of Sunrise

 Dawn - Child  of Sunrise

Dr Abe V Rotor 

Old church of San Vicente, Ilocos Sur 2017 

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, 
dawn joins the faithful

in their hymns and prayers,
alongside 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. ~
