Beauty Takes Time

Time
Beauty
Queen Esther
Wise kind lady
Spent six months myrrh oil, sweet odors; others, pleased King


(Idea from the "Bible" Book of Esther)

Lovely poem, Sara. Enjoyed the Biblical reference. (And if you ask any model or actress, they will tell you "Beauty Takes Time." LOL) Very nicely penned! Love, Carolyn
