Rachael's Charm

As charming
As Rachael was
She was beautiful in appearance
But ugly and barren inside
After all, all that glitter are not gold
Though all gold glitters

Rachael beauty was a barren
And unproductive beauty
Cos as beautiful as she was
She died on her way home
She did not follow Jacob home
Her beauty ended on the way

For this is usually the fate of anyone
Who make external beauty his/her pursuit in life
Cos its nothing
But certainly a fading beauty
That will surely fade on the way home
It will perish on the way.
Charm isn’t beauty
Neither is beauty charm

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
