Without From Within
Look at the inside,
to see the outside,
Look at the intrinsic,
to understand the extrinsic,
See the indigenous
to envision the exogenous,
For what lies without is a measure of within.
Love the heart
to adore the beauty,
Love the brain
to admire the brawn,
See the mind
to open up the soul
For what is inside spills onto the outward.
A beauty within
bears love without
A love without
brightens beauty within
And as we create a lovely without,
Let’s start from a beautiful within.
