Beauty

So, what is Beauty?

One may say
it is the rose

another, perhaps, would say
luscious lips, and a cute ski nose

a loving mother would say
definitely her children

a proud father would say
his horses and hard-fought
land – 

God will always say
His Son

and His Son 
called Man

The concept of beauty differs widely. Beauty is different to different people. To God we are the most beautiful. Remember we are created in His image. Beautiful conclusion, dear Joe.

Beauty from ashes, when put in the hands of Christ! Third verse is cute!

All in the eyes of the beholder...and when those eyes are pure, as those of Christ, what they see and relate, when His Vision accepted by others, always manifests beauty, perfection. Blessings my friend.
