Sun rises in Ecuador are special
Like seas scapes how the sky seems streaked with fire
The silhouette of city domes and silent spires
Of this picture in my heart I never tire
The golden yellow and purple warmth is evident
As the orange comes to take my breath away
And sucks in light that heralds a beginning
The beauty of a fresh and gorgeous day
And here beside me stands my friend Cristina
remarkable in every single way
Ebony hair and a look that is so meaningful
Quito is awake what can I say
The sun hangs, and its splendour is upon us
Ecuador means everything to me
Sunrises are clearly God's gift that is the position
To a land and people uniquely placed and free
