In the Eyes of the Beholder

For he/she who knows, has seen, Beyond the vision of faux beams Radiant, candid as the beauty keen In the eyes of beholder's dreams ‘Beauty' conceived physical Shows signs of mortality Inner beauty seems biblical Survives the soul of eternity For the mother's exposed breasts To feed her breast-feeding child For when Blessed Teresa smiled at the rest Thousand restless hearts she beguiled For when an ugly charmed a charmer Love beheld the eyes of heart Hath the beast not turned warmer Lore of beauty and the beast would fall apart For the perceptions differ Of thee and me I may defy, thou may prefer The essence of beauty
