In the Eye of the Beholder-POTD

Quote --The ugly girl cries in front of the mirror, 
She does not want to adorn herself as no one cares, 
Till her blind lover tells her how beautiful she looks, 
She hugs him, kisses him and finds her beauty in him. -- unknown

An old sweater, stitched long ago 
by my wife’s loving hands, 
might

MIRAGE OF CLARITY Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder

MIRAGE OF CLARITY
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the side view mirror of the U-Haul,
my familiar world slips away, 
the verdant green hills of North Texas, 
lush and breathing, 
their whispers fading into dust.

We roll into the heart of the Permian Basin,
the lushness surrendering to the parched expanse. 
Flat is the land—yellow, ochre and brown;
the sagebrush and mesquite, stoic in

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

FOR EYE AM THE EyE OF THE BEHOLDER-

Who am I to mumble?
Righteously so I should be humble
For I am the eye of the beholder
To seek, to plead grace, to see your face amongst your people
When I look at me, it’s honestly not me I see
For when you see me, I am defying eye see not

Beauty more than ever 

Will run its fickle course

It never lasts forever 

But may leave a pretty corpse

she is so ugly 
the operation went wrong

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 Eye of the Beholder

Surrounded by toys the toddler played in the sand with three rocks and five sticks.

The Eye of the Beholder

Today’s blessing goes out to anyone 
who has ever been made to feel 
they are different….
ugly, 
unattractive or bizarre.
May you be blessed to remember:
beauty is in the eye of the beholder…
so look in the mirror and BEHOLD
just how beautiful you are.

The Eye of the Beholder

Heard it said, “beauty's in the eye of the beholder”
My eyes see much beauty, sometimes lose composure
Get all wiggly
It's a conspiracy
To trap us guys, it easily causes overexposure

In the Eye of the Beholder

nature's lace up for the taking
a sunray glorifying leaf, stick, pebble and cloud
in my eye each precious jewels

Eye of the Beholder

Told beauty is in the eye of the beholder
I realize I’m getting uglier as I grow older,
My fair skin is now blotched and fine-lined
And any beauty increasingly hard to find.
Mirrors, constant purveyors of bad news,
Only bring solace when I realize, for sure, 
People who look at me see different views!

In the Eye of the Beholder

"Crumbling is not an instant act..."
                       Emily Dickinson

Why do we find old buildings beautiful,
books, whose pages are crumbling to dust;
weatherworn wooden doors once dutiful,
old cars' magnificent sheen turned to rust?

What calls us to

The Eye of the Beholder

We See What We Want To See

White lines carelessly scribbled oblique
For those who believe, a crucifix unique

Amidst this domain, beauty fills empty space
Wings of an angel, profile of a face

A bold, immense mammoth, a fierce dinosaur
Their presence once solid, but now metaphors

A heart, though misshapen, its meaning quite clear
One’s lover must now be the omniscient
