'beauty'

Beauty is fickle Even defining it can be problematic Cause my definition of beauty might differ vastly from yours But it doesn't mean that we are wrong in our views I see beauty in a child's carefree play I see beauty in the way partners look at each other when no one else is looking It's that unrehearsed laughter It's the joy of a child on their birthday I witness beauty in places where sadness sometimes reign But that's the amazing thing about beauty Putting it in a box will defeat its purpose and meaning ©wilmaneels ©11092020

Thank you James.. You know I have this weird thing going when it comes to writing. Dont really think about it when it flows. Only read it once it's done

Yes, indeed, beauty is just the joy of living and to serve God and to obey His will. Ain't God good? Yes, He is...all the time! Thank you lord! Amen, sweet Jesus A superbly written poem regarding your definition of Beauty. Will, beauty is simple and kind.While beauty is the wilderness that is wild and free. Beauty accepts love through faith. Yes, I really like this kind of poem because it can really go to deeper levels
