Dawns Arrival

As the morning carries different bird song My body stirs from its cozy slumber, begone Aloft to the mountains volcanized hard crest Dark clouds beat upon its jagged green breast Then raindrops fall down in a long mighty yawn The sun fights back to bring on the silvery dawn So full are the colors of rainbow phenomenon I wake to nature’s bounty completely impressed Like sitting at the table as a humble breakfast guest To see her splendor spun in swirls of bright chiffon Green is the valley that man tills with his brawn Growing rich gifts of the land it does spawn As dawn wanes to noon for earths timely request I let go of the morning feeling happily blessed My head filled with pictures nature has drawn written 9-22-2019 copy right protected 2019 Jeanne McGee San Pedro, Guatemala

Here to check out your quintellas, Jeanne. We know missionaries in Guatemala who manage a school/home for abused children called La Senda. In Sumpango, I think??? Love the thought of nature drawing pictures. A beautiful write, Thanks for sharing.

I am studying Spanish at the CorazonMaya school. They also give money to help the local school children. It is such a beautiful country.
