Yours; True Beauty

Your true beauty runs through my being, every moment of every day,
That stark, strong and scintillating beauty that lurks just underneath your skin.
Your beauty, a soul which consistently magnifies virtue,
Calling to attention all the great traits of humanity;
The purity of truth, reflected in your eyes,
The power of integrity caught wonderfully in your smile,
The strength of conviction and drive captured in your every movement.
Your true beauty is a wonderful gift that I unwrap each day,
Delighting in the many blessings so clearly afforded me;
Thank you for your patience,
Your kindness,
Your compassion,
Your intelligence,
Your wit and grace –
Thank you,
For your love and the true beauty it reveals.

I love you!

Star Above

I look to the stars,
And discover a fire,
Burning inside of me,
A desire to change the world,
Starting with what we see,
Reality,
Relative,
Shaded by perception,
But in this age,
We seem led by deception,
A sly game,
Of three card Monty,
That we’re never meant to win,
Except enough to suck us in,
I smile as in the moons glow,
I begin to realize what we need to know,
It starts with in,
Understanding our souls,
Feeling our spirits,
And learning to let go,
Each moment,
Each hour and day,
Filled with choice and opportunity,
If only we could see,
How beautiful this world is,
And how beautiful it could be,
I look to the stars,
And the great out there,
And wonder will this world ever be fair,
Will we ever right our wrongs,
And realize the hope of our songs,
The dreams of poets, lovers and artists of all sorts,
I see the sky,
And the promise that it makes,
And it starts with me,
That’s all it takes,
We are the champions of our destiny,

What will you choose?
