Beauty

Beauty I have always heard,
Is in the eyes of the beholder.
There is no general rule to it,
No universal law guiding it.
It has no definite description,
It has no accurate depiction,
To some people a person is hot,
And to others same person is not.
Beauty is what you think it is,
Beauty is whatever you call it.


Beauty they say comes from within,
From a person’s innermost being.
It can make one a beauty Queen,
Or make one the monkey’s twin.
Beauty is not that cute face you see,
Nor that sexy figure you aspired to be.
Beauty is the product of a sweet heart,
That attracts everything along its part.
Good looks are great, but they are temporal.
Beauty is better, coz Beauty is evergreen.


I am so blessed to have found Beauty,
Coz Beauty has made my life beautiful.
YES! I have met Beauty in person,
And Beauty has being a blessing.
I have gotten know Beauty by her name,
And since then I’ve not been the same.
English says beauty is the opposite of ugly,
But I say that, Beauty is dark and lovely,
Beauty is my black African Queen,
And this is true; Beauty is YOU.
