Siem Reap town,
still a beauty,
but not so innocent or simple.
Women dressed to kill,
High heels,
lipstick,
eye shadow.
Sense of materialism,
stronger.
Young ladies
girls,
seeking better life.
Life
not as simple as it was.
Small kids,
bare foot,
running
singing.
Education or family,
can they choose?
live the lives as their parents.
Can they dreams
hope?
I wish.
my internal dialog,
Teaches me about loving
sharing,
in many differenct ways.
Art will save the world,
connected my inner self.
Colors of Cambodia,
touched my heart.
Kind hearted individuals,
bring art materials.
Generous sponsors,
spontaneous giving.
Loving kindness radiating
Love and joy surrounding
We learn.
Each of us plant a seed,
In ourselves,
In others.
It will,
It should,
Blossom!
