The Power and the Beauty

Angkor Wat, Cambodia

A temple to last forever
Until they ran away
No invitation spurned
The vast roots took hold
Slowly, inevitably
Saplings turned into trees
Giants grew taller, stronger
Until man’s labour was rent asunder

Angkor Wat, Cambodia

North Carolina, USA

A delicate petal
Precariously perched
Not built to last
Beauty is rarely strong
A summer sun can spawn
Develop and destroy
All in a day
Capture before it is too late

Sheffield Place Winston-Salem, North Carolina
