My Beautiful One

You’re an enduring eclipse of quotidian winsomeness, Existing in front of all others, compelling the aforesaid into your shadow: My Beautiful One… Surpassing their talent for beauty, By allowing the world to witness your gift for it: My Beautiful One… Rejuvenating a word once relegated to becoming depthless, Its affects near fleeting, Beautiful showed few signs of standing peerless as it once did, Though within your presence, Beautiful is brought back to its quintessence, to its inception, Shown the miracle it was conceived in, you’ve promoted its ordinance even over that of the beholder’s vision: My Beautiful One… In your arms, embosomed by you, Beautiful is free from its superficial cellar, No longer just vernacular, the “B” word for pretty, or merely our lexicon’s adornment. No, My Beautiful One… In your face, Beautiful finally returns nature’s true reflection, Your facial features burn incandescently and uncontrollably, fueled by a lifetime of beauty all in one place. My Beautiful One anoints Beautiful with her grace, returning its virtue, Granting it renewed potency…thought lost for always… Written in Afghanistan -27 OCT 2013

Oh PJ my man LOL! It's a bit more than sexy Bro..."you’ve promoted its ordinance even over that of the beholder’s vision" she is setting a new standard of beauty. No longer is beauty decided by the random beholder, she is the new standard for us all -period. Yeah... LOL! Thanks Poetic!

I feel the same way about the word "beautiful"...overused and misappropriated.

Stunning lines and glowing creativity. Breathtaking... I really like the "B" word for pretty reference ... so much elegance to take in after reading this :)
