Beauty Is Evanescent

Beauty is evanescent My eyes have seen unspeakable, incomprehensible beauty. I thought I knew what beauty was and then... I met you! Your apparition left me astonished entranced, tongue tied, mesmerized... My eyes could never be the same again... how could they be... as all the beauty beforehand seen now had a new reference point... and that was you! Curiously though, under more careful observation and scrutiny over time I noticed something distinctive in you, something inherently significant. I now realize that my recently redefined understanding of what beauty is, needs to be adjusted to harmonize with a far deeper comprehension. I've noticed that your external beauty is really an outward physical reflection of internal realities. Your kindness your innocence is effervescent, effusing and emanating from deep within your interior. Leading me to conclude that physical beauty is evanescent but kindness and innocence is ever present. John Derek Hamilton May 26,2016
