If you asked me what beautiful means

Listen to poem:

If you asked me what beautiful means, It’s being loved by a strong woman Empowered, chasing her own dreams, Engraved with grace on soft moon, beams A thoroughbred she is strong, wild, and free, A phenomenon that writes my destiny In her eyes, amber stars find their gleam, They are my novel; affections the theme If so what is beauty? Let me redefine, It’s her uhm-hmm, an approval I find divine. A spirit that soars, unbroken, unbound, A soul that exposes darkness to sound If you asked me what her strength truly is, It’s hearing that voice, a melody dismisses the silence that once held her down, Opening up a gorgeous, that's beyond renowned A story of courage, of trials, not left untold A beacon that chases away the dead of night Her love, a torch that never grows cold, Empowered, she stands, a towering light, So if you asked me what beautiful means, I'll tell you It’s her spirit, her heart, her everything, in-between, beside her strength, I found my own, By her love, I reside in a world I would never have known

TO ME/WHAT I FELT ... This IS breathtakingly beautiful, a lovely, stirring dedication to a fantasy woman, not all women, but THE woman of your dreams. As I read, it flits around with strings wrapping my heart with dreams too perfect to ever realize a knot, and then I recalled that in the Fall of my life, I found my ideal puzzle-piece, who was both plus and minus my fantasy and that, ultimately, added up to even better than I'd dreamt. A touching write, I still feel ... CayCay

She's more than just a perfect, rose petal. She's more than just warm spring rain. She's more than just her nurturing hands. She's everything growing in the garden life plans. A.S.

You're most welcome. I listened to you read it just now and it's even more effective to hear you whisper the lines.

Thank you Lin! Women are the absolute best part of life. They are what makes the sun shine bright. Were it not for them we would not need its light. It's because of them we see love; instead of darkness so rife. With extreme fondness A.S.
