Beauty

They are so pleasant to our eyes, 
The flowers, nature’s great creation. 
Though their apparel is so nice, 
Their blossom has a short duration. 

But beauty of a different kind 
Can be contrasted with a flower. 
It constantly excites our mind, 
Makes us do things beyond our power. 

Great artists laud it day and night 
And it is worth our praise and duty. 
You, pretty women, have the right 
To wear this splendid crown of beauty.
