David Harris - Where Have

As I look at old fortifications
that are dotted around my country,
I often wonder about the craftsmen
who worked so hard to build them
without the aid of our modern technology.
How skilled they were with their hands
when you look at the beauty
of their ornate decorations
that make those old building stand out.
You sit and ponder now
where have all their skills gone.
