Poetry and art are
immortal and eternal in the sense that they continue to live from one generation to another
in the from of books and memories scattered in different parts of the world.
However, buildings, statues, and gilded monuments are fixed on a particular
place. Owing to their large size and immovability, they become an easy target
of enemy artillery and cannons during war. But art lives on forever in the
memories of people who dying hand them over to the next generations. For example
holy scriptures, rare manuscripts of great poets and writers, paintings,
sculptors, etc still stand erect unto this day. Wars could not destroy these
beautiful creations.
