I ran my hand against<br>the smooth wood, a splinter lodging itself into my palm.<br>I winced and looked into the trees at just the right<br>instant. The sun was rising behind the branches<br>like a fish rising through seaweed. Hesitant.<br>As if afraid of what the water will do to it.<br>My friend broke into a smile as it was greeted by the pink<br>and soft orange sky around it, soon giving way to perfect blue.<br>A pure, motionless blue that went on forever, never<br>faltering, never ashamed to be the 'sad color'<br>that was simply a mistake of the People. It knew itself<br>to mean happiness and beauty. The beauty of the world.<br>The day dragged on, but it was a nice blue sky day<br>as the Child of the Dawn traveled across it.</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=Zoe+Guillory">Zoe Guillory</a><div class=q> <img src="https://www.citatepedia.ro/g/32share.png" style="float:left" alt="Share"> <script type="text/javascript" src="//s7.addthis.com/js/300/addthis_widget.js#pubid=citatepedia" async="async"></script><div style="display:inline-block" class="addthis_sharing_toolbox" data-url="http://en.citatepedia.ro/comments.php?id=540850" data-title="Child of the Dawn de Zoe Guillory" data-description="In the small hours of the morning, I sat alone, outside on a bench that smelled of wood and the old women that sat there Sunday afternoons to watch the children playing at the park.
