The Most Beautiful Women

The most beautiful women 
 are those tragically unaware 
Of the allure they possess
Modest, selfless, lovely...

Adoring all things sentimental
 Cherishing moments others look past
Thoughtfully considering others perspective
Ensnared by the trappings of honest emotion
  Lacking pretentious, overly dramatic outbursts...
Genuine, sincere, caring...

The most beautiful women
  are those innately creative souls
tapping into their conscience
  and beyond to place perspective
on the light and dark in life...
Capsulating the joys and sorrows
 into page, and canvas, and mind
Imaginative, artistic, inspiring

As I read poems reflecting
Love, Hate, Life, Family, and friends
inspiration, introspection...
some fiercely descriptive...others light and whimsical
All shedding light on the wonders of your mind...
  Ladies of PoetrySoup...The most beautiful women...are YOU!!
