Another day, another temple

Beng Mealea. Hindu Temple.
Vishnu and Hanuman

Hold their presence there

Etched and carved into stone.

Crisp blue sky laid against

Bright green grass--

Cow shit baked in the sun,

Emitted a putrid odor upon

Entrance and exit.

Maneuvered in, on and around

Crumbled mossy green slabs

Of rock entangled in 

vines and tree roots.

Majestic. Incredible, but very real at the same time.

Rode home with a coconut in tow,

Sipped the sweet, nourishing

Water.

Later we watched the supreme

Peachy goodness of the sunset,

Completely enthralled,

We all felt the same thing,
At least on some level.

This is our life, and we're 

Living it to the fullest.

Hari Om!
