Beauty

She stands upon the sanded shore
The waves praise her feet
She marvels at the sunset glow
It makes her feel complete

Her beauty is reflection of
The multi-colored sky
A beauty that is so profound
It makes the angels cry

To see her in the glow that God
Had painted with his hand
Was likened to Nirvana
Or to see the promised land

Beauty is an image
It's a joy for all to see
It helps to soften hardend heart
Or set a spirit free

But beauty isn't limited
To eye or word of mouth
'Cause beauty comes from deep within
And love's what brings it out

Beauty could be standing
At a corner on the street
Begging for a dollar
Just to have a bite to eat

Or beauty could respond in kind
By giving what is asked
And maybe just a little more
To help the human task

Beauty isn't something
That is just to please the eye
Beauty is the soul within
And beauty is the mind

yo. I fixed that Poem. the Meter was Hit. Musta been right about four Twennie on the dot when I typed it. Anyways, It may not be perfect either, Oh well. I don't really write too many rhymes straight up and limericks. Do you ever do any other styles. If so post them joints.
