Beauty

Beauty So exquisite Mirrored wrong perceptions Disguising hidden reflections Of past hurts and life’s cruel condemnation Lies beneath the surface Obscured mask of Beauty © Kim van Breda- 20 October 2014

I see many layers of interpretations possible for this rictameter. It is the kind I would read so often that I would eventually know it by memory.

Hi Pandita Thank you for your kind comment-- much appreciated. Yes, I have discovered this format recently and become quite addicted to it-- it's fun and easy... first word 2 syllables.. next line going down 4/6/8/10/8/6/4 syllables, and then your last word same as the first. It does not have to be narrative.... i.e. every line van be a separate thought. Have fun... X
