BEAUTY
What is beauty?
It is not something you can always see
But it is something you can always feel
Like a breeze to an oak tree
Just like fish have scales
Beauty has love
Like loneliness has darkness
And peace has a dove
There is beauty in life
And in a babies face
Beauty like being set free
In a peaceful place
There is beauty in a smile
Beauty all the way through
And if you will look
There is beauty in you!
Beeker
