Green husk - claming her space

Description

Sometimes even the most well built fortress, and buildings, and monuments, does not survive centuries, becoming only an husk, a tribute of their former beauty. In the place previously occupied by Nature, the human genius takes a tangibile form: a statue, a castle, a church... simply somethink that mark our presence.

Talvolta persino i palazzi, le fortezze ed i monumenti meglio costruiti non sopravvivono ai secoli. Di loro restano solo gusci vuoti, un tributo alla loro passata bellezza. Dove regnava la natura, il genio umano prende una forma visibile: una statua, un castello, una chiesa... qualcosa che segna la nostra presenza.

Then, as the times goes rushing by, the shape of their genius start to fade. The descendants of the illuminated artist who erected such beautiful places go away, leaving again the land they took from Sis Nature to her. When she silently claims her place, she always took a green, warm blanket with her. She covers the husk of a place where we humans lived, laughed, ate, smiled, cried, fought, rested, looked at the sky, and her mind wanders, thinking at the past in which she left that space to us. She decides to left her green blanked in place, to cover and protect that husk of former times. Every time we look at that building, wondering about the illuminated hand who built it, she quietly sits near us, pointing at the ruined walls and thinking. *I was there, I kept that building for you. For let you remember who are :)*.

Allora, mentre il tempo passa, la forma tangibile del loro genio comincia a sparire. I discendenti degli artisti illuminati che hanno eretto posti così meravigliosi vanno via, lasciando alla sorellina Natura la terra che le avevano chiesto. Silenziosamente lei reclama il suo posticino, portandosi dietro una calda copertina vede, con la quale ricopre i resti di un posto dove noi esseri umani abbiamo vissuto, riso, mangiato, sorriso, pianto, combattuto, riposato e guardato il cielo. La sua mente vaga, pensando al tempo in cui ci lascio' quel posticino. Così pensa di lasciare quella copertina, e proteggere e ricoprire quel guscio vuoto di tempi passati. Ogni volta che guardiamo a quella costruzione, pensando alla mano illuminata che la eresse, lei siede in silenzio vicino a noi, indicando quelle rovine e pensando. *Io ero lì, ho conservato questa costruzione per te, per far sì che ricordi sempre chi sei :)*

Such a gorgeous piece of history (for lack of better words)! Even though it's considered ruined, I believe it's beautiful : )
