Beauty Shines

a candid hard look at life

Beauty Shines                              

 

Beauty Shines,

like every sunset-stunning,

misty morning,

peaceful dream,

child’s grateful eye.

 

Life enfolds,

the ugly and the pure,

street-walk failures,

high-mark steppers,

struggle sure.

 

Never new,

we crawl and clammer,

seek and shelter,

lose and follow that,

which we hold dear.

 

But only beauty shines,

and only freedom cures.

this poetic radiates in insight . I like the conciseness of the lines , each casting an image that builds toward the coruscating finale

[.]

the circle of life continues as we make of it what we can..the last two lines stand alone..

[piggy]

this is just great.

i like poems that are just words crunched together, as is this

Incredibly beautiful :) I really love the style of your writing.

And all else can shimmer but at the end of the day, we are all clammering for a glimpse of the brightness! Exceptional poem xx

[NoneOfYourBusiness akaK..]

absolutely wondrous~ and those last two lines complete the beauty of being completely~
