Architecture,

A snapshot caught brain

Imaging bricks!...

Concrete plane foresight
Polyrhythmic totem stalk
Waterfalls upward...

Winter branches reveal
Summer home of winged sprites
Bird architecture...

I wonder about people and how they
fit into the architecture,
are they itching to die or is
death
just another building?...

A plastic card melts inside a plastic bin
honoring the architecture of our structure
the gold leaf house we must build, democracy....

resonating peace
cathedral bells ring promise....
wind carries solace....
brilliant architecture high
streets below swirl in rhythm .......

a tribute to her serene majesty 
the one and only and forever Eiffel tower 
reflecting unique architecture in the water
enhancing French horizons...

Magnificent scenery
Ancient Architecture
Lovely lovely people
Terrific cuisine
All I wish is to return again one day

Ancient architecture has recently been my joy
Carved out of hillsides, primitive tools were employed
Blows our mind
At what we find
Can't imagine how they did it, wows us humanoids...

Somebody I could count on 
Interested in architecture  
Best at making mashed potatoes    
Loved by his family 
Immersed in reading mysteries 
No matter what was said we made up   
Greatly missed...

a hand swooped down to
firmly hold the ancient building
to root the architecture
to preserve the craftsmanship.

an artistic marvel
human and angel
earth and heaven
merged as one....

Ancient architecture absolutely blows my mind
With the limited resources available at the time
To accomplish such beauty
Was a feather in their tutti
Quite impressive but must've cost lotsa dimes...

I'm obsessed by documentaries about ancient times
Especially the architecture it sure rings my chimes
How did they achieve it
These amazing feats
Aliens perhaps helped build these structures so fine...

TOYS
puzzles
in cracked wood

linking the pieces
to frame a whole  model
as childhood dreams awaken

“my architecture builds sky-views”

Impressive rich culture,
Intense architecture,
imbibe a sense of pride,
Ideation trumpets.
Intrepid patriots
indeed for motherland,
in vivid colours smile.

Beautiful iris flower,
Some petals folded down ,
Instead,

Many are  upright, however,
Making a pretty crown
Indeed!

Tantalising architecture,
Fragrence in profound,
Appealed !

Nectar lover pollinators,
Straying all around,
Hurried!...

Up the mountain
The forest hides a fountain
Escape the summer madness, 
In cool shade

Ice cold water
Glides through my fingers
Senses awake
A gushing melody Under Ottoman shapes

There's light on the surface
Even oppressors
Leave relics to impress us
This oasis of calmness sedates...

Micron thick!
Weightless weight! 
As plain as plain itself!
Green as the greenery! 
As complicated,
As the chain-stitch embroidery;
Or grotesque architecture,
Or sophisticated fixtures...
Each leaf is 
Ever precious
Even though they are
Evidently destined to fall...

Strokes of paintbrush can't capture
Darkness of her heart...

A city of pristine architecture,
From the grand art to the miniature,
Beauty on parade,  
Not a charade,
A doorway to relics,
A home of theatrics, 
A host of grand events,
Chauffeuring everyone to pleasurable moments,
A city under the kiss of heaven,
An abode with you is a creative leaven.

Majestic mountains guard the lake,
A piece of heaven here on earth.
Behold it, your breath it will take,
Its pricelessness defies all worth.
Nothing made by man can compare
With nature's architecture so fair.

Man’s lofty hopes once soared in stone.
His architecture sought God’s sky,
In spires uprisen, sprung from earth.

Today, man’s mood is crudely shown
In concrete cubes that smite the eye,
Brute paleoliths of stone-age worth
That future archeologists, amazed, will scan,
And ponder… did ape-like artisans evolve from man?...

On the Champ de Mars
(Beehive of activity)
Stands an engineering feat
Of latticed design
Ridiculed architecture
That survives the test of time.
