Beauty

(c) Breeze Vincinz

but what of this talk of beauty

the kaleidoscopes

that sizzle our pupils

outside of ourselves

deterring us from

glowing within

rather the watercolors

be spread before us

not in us

not for us

what fools are we

to honor the window

and ignore the mirror

as if there were not mountains

and valleys

and storms with wondrous rainbows

snow angels

desert gardens

and oceans

and oceans

of horizons

within

[Jo Anna Bella]

Fresh. This poem brings me back from the brink of consumption and returns me to exploration, the exploration of myself and the beauty that creation nurtured.

[The Musings of Mary H.]

You really have a way with words. A great pleasure to read this! Delightful!

"The kaleidoscopes that sizzle our pupils" What a great way of expressing the constant bombardment of what beauty is (or should be) in our modern culture. This poem encourages us all to look at our own inner beauty, "glow within." This is a great poem.
