A poem I wrote (2010) that won a gold award on the poetry website www.allpoetry.com

The Test of Time

Perceive the wonders of the world,
A wisp of history unfurled
They stood the test of centuries,
Revealed the truth, man’s destiny.

Observe the ancient Parthenon,
An architectural phenomenon,
Built by the sweat of proud Hellenes
During the infancy of Democracy.

Pyramids that reach toward Heaven
In their tombs the Pharoahs lay hidden.
Egypt claims them, dear homeland,
Stark, lonely sentinels in the sand.

Take a look at the Taj Mahal,
Visit China’s winding Great Wall
They stand as testimony to mankind
Immortal proof of the test of time.
