Premium Member It is said that beauty resides in the eyes of the beholder
It is said that beauty resides in the eyes of the beholder, then my lover's eyes must be infinite galaxies, for his gaze transforms me into a breathing masterpiece, he not only sees me but contemplates me as an expanding universe, as if my chaos were art, and my scars constellations, etched into a sky deserving of unconditional and eternal...

Premium Member Beautiful is the Beholder
"Good deeds are more important than good looks." The proverb was first recorded by Chaucer in 'The Wife of Bath's Tale' (c. 1387) You saw the beauty past her scars. You looked inside her fragile soul. You cared not for the angry wars. You sought the good the battles stole. You sang with angels through the stars. You set compassion as...

Eyes of the Beholder
Staring through, Eyes so new. Forgive me, For judging you. We've been trained to, Single out the few, who dont fit the view. Picking them apart, Like the vultures do. -------------- Growing more each day, Seeing the error of my way. I start thinking, About what to say. How words play, such important roles, Touching souls, So deep, They weep. -------------- As we grow older, The surface grows colder. Often giving someone, The cold shoulder. Words from the past, They...

Ugly is in the eye of the beholder
I appear ugly when alone I look normal in company Self-loathing needs no embrace Rather than scoring myself I'm ugly prettiness wronged I’m shocked by my beauty Again and again, till I'm cuts When each slice is mystery The clue to beauty's murder Is finding how lovely I was If everyone is like me then Who then is ugly like me? When you leave, I'm homely The less...

In the Eye of the Beholder
I have taken pictures Of a perfect summer's day; Flowers, alive and new, in spring; An elephant, majestic and proud, staring at me. I have witnessed A robin standing curiously in the fresh snow; A blackbird feeding her young; The dew on the grass on a crisp autumn morning; Dogs running wildly and happily in a field. But none have been more beautiful Than you...

Premium Member The Beholder
Lure of mirage in deranged dunes, dances in dandelion rhythm with oasis dream, illusion inscribed in sane sands of time, sliding continuum with desiccated travail, thirst unquenched, stimulus perpetual. Dormant despair usurps harps of hope, vibrato dissipates unperceived, wisdom shroud unfurls crafty chimera in life of actuality, awareness imbibed. Stifling shadow of ebony anguish cloud creeps remorseless, dissension darkness drips opaque desolateness on listless landscape, mangled in strife maelstrom, mind sucked within hope...

Beauty In the Eye of the Beholder
Beauty in the eye of the beholder Rare trees and abandoned homes Where doors are full of bullet holes And the wicked sun tries to dye the paint On the walls that smell like a salty water Of the place where mermaids sang to Ulysses. Beauty in the eye of the beholder Traffic jams giant malls toxic environment Everyone is in a hurry Even the...

The Beholder
Through the smoke filled air sunlight snared me a glimpse of the expansive landscape painting. It spoke to me convincingly about its inherent worth matching the picture window view stroke for stroke shadow for shadow sparkle glimmer and the...

The eye will deceive, but the water never lies ~ always, ever down. Patiently seeking the path of least resistance ~ not to be denied. Gravity enjoined ~ a tool and not a hindrance harnessed all in time. After all, what is a stall in forward progress, but time to reflect? Babbling with laughter, overjoyed by sweet release ~ gushing free again. Unnoticed by all, wielded by the Time Keeper, playing...
