This would depend upon your state.
In general, a power of attorney is a document that a person signs to give the "attorney in fact" rights to manage the other person's affairs. The document may specify what affairs the "attorney in fact" may act upon, and any conditions before the power becomes effective.

A legal guardianship is a legal proceeding started by a Court when it is determined that a person can no longer take care of their own physical needs. Generally, the Court assigns and supervises the guardian to ensure he is acting in the proper interests of the other person (the "ward.") Guardians are appointed for minors in legal proceedings (i.e. guardians "ad litem") as well as in certain child custody matters (i.e. a foster child's "legal guardian.") However, guardianships can be extended for anyone who is no longer competent to provide himself with the necessities of life (someone old, someone invaild, someone in a coma...)
I don't know what a "temporary" legal guardianship is in your state; you might want to consult an attorney.

Power of attorney gives control to another person or entity until the person's affairs are settled.
Temporary guardianship, is just that, temporary. Also guardianship is not just for children, it's for anyone, of any age, that is deemed incompetent to make legal decisions.
