was she beautiful?

                                       Cleopatra was beautiful
                                                 They say
                                          But, what is beauty
                                               Nobody tells.
                                The "most beautiful" may not be
                                   So beautiful as the other one

                                  The beauty is nowhere except
                                 Inside the one who discovers it
                                     Is it then a self-reflection?
                                            Difficult to affirm
                                       Seems something more,
                                  Looks like a source of ecstasy

                                   See the flowers, breeze and
	                                    The setting sun	
                                        Are they not beautiful?
                                      Oblivious of the beholder, 
                                       Their beauty oozes itself
                                  Beauty is thus a purpose per se.

                                       Beauty is truth embodied 
                                         Dispersed everywhere
                               From mountain tops to ocean floors
                                     Only at times, eyes discover 
                                    A trait distinct from the whole 
                                        That becomes beautiful.

                                      Eternal like time and space
                                   Emitting cosmic consciousness
                                       Manifests itself as beauty
                                   When it meets the seeking eye 
                                   But it always exists, lies hidden 
                                                 Unless seen
