Beauty

The sky dreary
                                       I guess some would call it scary
                                              I think it's beautiful 
                                                    In its own way
                                         Watching the light fade away
                                           Empty tree branches sway
                                                 Whispering to stay
                                                       Cold chill 
                                                      Sits so still 
                                           There's a peace in the cold
                                                   Standing there
                                                  Watching it hold
                                               It doesn't lack beauty
                                                   If you truly see
                                                The beauty gleams
                                                    In everything

Aww, thank you! Most of my family pretty much hates when it's rainy or dreary. So I decided to write a poem about how beautiful it can be if you just really look at it. :D

It's all in your perspective. I like how you try to find the beauty in things that most would call "scary" or "unattractive". There's a Twilight Zone episode I watched called The Eye of the Beholder... really makes you think! Beautiful poem...

:O I saw that episode! (The old Twilight Zone is way better) Yeah, I usually like to look at it all from different angles. What may look scary can actually be beautiful if you just open your eyes to see it.

Good one. Caleah, yes, beauty could be a decision and lies in the eye of the beholder, they say.
