Beauty

A Poem by Lisa C
"

treating people with respect and kindness is beauty in it’s true form

"

Beauty surrounds us
you see it in every grain of sand
and every blade of grass
you see it in the leaves that fall,
the twinkling of the stars,
the colours of sunrise and
as day fades you see it at sunset

you can hear it in birdsong
with the dawn chorus waking the world
you can even find it in the words
of your favourite song and
feel it in the whisper of breath
across your skin from the one you love

look in the mirror, strip away that
mask you wear and see it
in your own eyes
it’s there in your children , your family
you can even see it in the actions
of others if you’re willing to look

Beauty is in everyone
we just need to see beneath the disguise
that they show the world
beauty isn’t always about the way things look
or sound it’s there in our love , in our actions
and the way we value others
treating people with respect and kindness
is beauty in it’s true form

If everyone in our world led with kindness, concern and we listen to each other. Would be a better world. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry and your worthwhile thoughts.

"There are flowers everywhere for those who look"

Sadly most people go through life without actually seeing the gifts that mother nature has bestowed. A beautifully descriptive poem. One I greatly appreciate.

' .. look in the mirror, strip away that~ mask you wear and see it~ in your own eyes.. '

And from there, you tell your own invisible but magical remedy.. it IS everywhere.
What a wonderful poem, what gentle wording. Thank you so much for sharing it.

and these days...behind the masks, true beauty looks out...beauty is the understanding and kindness people are showing to each other during this excruciatingly difficult time of sickness and loss.
