Triolet 16

Notre Dame, dry to kindling, burns. 
Do we mourn the Buddhas of Bamyan?
Symbol of the Church as an urn,
Notre Dame, dry to kindling, burns.
Unless the shell dies. . . will we ever learn
About new life come manana?
Notre Dame, dry to kindling, burns.
Do we mourn the Buddhas of Bamyan?

Wonderful use of the triolet as a social commentary tool - well done and food for thought.............
