Beauty Personified
Beauty, I wish to celebrate..........................you
Each of us tries to capture who you...............are
A stepping stone to.....................................magnificence
Upon these eyes, images of you are..............dancing
Thankfully you provide a reason to go............on
You gift our lives with significance and...........hope
Perhaps at times you may be........................hidden
Easily found by looking.................................beneath
Rising as we examine...................................possibilities
Sound, light, darkness, touch, the building of ..we
Oh how your praises we love to.......................sing
Now we have a reason for...............................reaching
I'm pushed away yet drawn.............................towards
Finding lovely shades of grey and rainbow.........dreams
I only now know what Poets of old....................meant
Etherial light what is it.....................................for
Distilled to it's essence, a gift for us...................all
