Beauty Is Only Skin Deep

.            BEAUTY IS ONLY SKIN DEEP

               When I walk I hold my head down.
               Very shy and always carry a frown.

               A little meek and hardly ever smile.
            Everyone laughs cause I have no style.

         The way I wish I was is only in my dreams.
                 Because of my bad self esteem.

                     The way I feel is oh so true.
  "I have dipped my pen in the sublime, it is my gift to you"

          I have no friends and no one really cares.
           The way I look makes people only stare.

                When I see myself all I do is weep.
         Mama says sweetie beauty is only skin deep.

        She looked at me and said you remember this
               you close your eyes and make a wish.

                Life is what makes you who you are.
        Be a good person and that will make you a star.

Beauty Can Be Found

Beauty can be found in the sky, twilight's golden glow,
Beauty can be found in the pallette color bold
Beauty can be found in the wonder of a smile

Kind and gracious words make beauty abound
A gentle touch, hug or caress can cause beauty to blossom
where none could grow.
Beauty makes rain fall over a barren desert.

Beauty can be found in a broken spirit.
Beauty can be found in a death and rebirth.
Beauty is in the mind's eye.

Even a dung beatle finds it's mate beautiful.

What Is She Thinking

"Come fluttering words,come Drifting words to me",
To find out what shes doing despite what i see
Standing there in her long gown
With her hair sprawling down
Smelling a flower 
Taking a moment to stop and think
How quickly that moment goes, in just a blink
Taking a break from her chores
Could that be what this is
or to remind me to cherish all the importance there is?
Could be.....
Though, i think she is reveling in the simple beauty of a rose
And 
Reminding us not take for granted all the beauty that we know

Red Rita Sorrow

RedRita,RedRita as red as her margarita. 
So beautiful they whisper the men. Little do they know she is only a sin. Not as cold as ice 
nor as hot 
as fire but warm and scented to mens desires. She is the eve that adam could never look 
away.She is the apples skin as ripe and luious as her lips. She is the snake that coils 
arounds the tree of knowlege sithering with her sliky smooth scales. She is all there hopes 
and though her they are inspired. A dress so bright and red makes other women hate and 
dread the woman say that her beauty is her weapon and her curse. For to much attention 
form other's will make them bold, couragous, and stupid. They give their love by taking 
there life's a battle that brought tears to her eyes. Her beauty was not only her gift but her 
wisdom was very sharp and o-so swift she made her self turn from the air to the wind them 
would make her disapear no lovely tunes were allowwed into their ears but shallow lives and 
glass tears. Her vanishment was more than they feared their was no life only sigh's.

The Dancing Shadow

I am stitched onto this physique of flesh
Gracefully following whenever I can
Dancing in front, behind, or to the side.
I love how I see myself
Shaded grey
Shaded black.
The beauty of movement
The beauty of vision
Enchanting and mesmerizing
Swaying end to end—
Caught in a frenzy of twirls.
Defining the curves of her nose
Her lips
Her hair
But without the gift of becoming a mirror image
The true color
The true direction
The true ways of a mortal
I will always be
Her dancing shadow.

I Dreament I Was a Butterfly, Or Was I Dreaming

I drement i was a butterfly or was I a butterfly dreaming 

I flew through a key hole into an enchanting garden. beauty surrounded me. taking 
me in with passion. Wet dew was on every rose little droplets from heaven. my 
wings then grew faster and faster untill I found myself on the ground human once 
again. As I lay and look up the trees are captivating.  Its so facinating the way the 
branches flow interwind with eachother, never breaking unless forced.  As I sit up 
the garden is like sipping a cup of tea warm and delightful. Its like being a child 
again so enrapturing.  Well I take a walk beauty is everywhere. I look entracing my 
steps. I come back to the door, I touch the cold brass with my fingertips. Then I once 
again feel the tingle when I become aware again of my surroundings I am once 
again a butterfly, able to fly through the small hole. My life laying ahead because I am changed.

Daydreams and Dream Dreams


The Birth of Destiny

As dark and light merged, 
in the touch of fingers
a passover was made


this coupling foretold
that destiny, 
would be born


pushed from the cusp
of two worlds,
leaving halos and horns 
in a stillness, that ever
sighs of her departure


A single green blade 
freed the earth
stealing her first breath, 
as tips of flowers interlaced, 
it shimmered within her 
first dew kissed sleep


observed by immortals
(from both sides)


her fingers painted air, 
as feet ran its first steps 
creating winds through time,


gasps echoed the heavens 
(a gathering had watched) 
In awe


their desire 
had been to keep her,
sacrificing their love 
they gave this beauty 
a life, purpose


a smile 
at the end laughter
the comma 
in the birth of tears,
became a lighted hope 
that embers


all covet her


this galaxy of beauty 
born on the cusp,
passed us all today  
and walks among us


(immortals maintain their gaze)


and destiny? found me
as I write on her tail,


and touch the profound
