No Greater Beauty

NO GREATER BEAUTY

No greater beauty hath these eyes seen,
No grander vista nor ocean scene,
No better metaphor could Rumi find,
Nor Browning a more perfect rhyme…
No sweeter music hath graced these ears
No absolute truth could be as clear
Than the golden soul light I did view
In your eyes when you said “I see you”.
