Beauty Is
Beauty is the olive tree
where patience lays
it is a rainbow
the promise of a new day
it is a child
untainted untouched
free from hatred and lust
beauty is an old woman
in a time of need
and a hand reaches out
to help cross the street
it is a man full of strength
bowing down to the meek
its the loud and obnoxious
and a moment of peace
it is the proud soldier
giving up his knife
It Is A Good Shepard
Laying Down His Life
Beauty Is Everywhere
