Natural beauty comes from the heart
It's true and strong right from the start
If the face and body is all I can see
Then bad for you and worse for me
I've grown up shallow and wasted my youth
The goodness of my heart tells me the truth
It doesn't matter what you see
It only matters how I feel about me
Natural beauty comes from our maker
He is the giver, we are the taker
Do we doubt his wisdom and rely on our own
If we do this, we truly are alone
Now that I've learned the truth of it all
I wonder what it was, before that I saw
Now I look for beauty only in the heart
Which is what I should've done right from the start

Poetry: Natural beauty
The dream into the imagination of man,
Bring us to unknown worlds of great distances,
Unlike our very own and to wondrous
Reaching my hands up to the sky,
Blocking the sun from your eye.
Giving warmth from the cold,
Offering something strong to
I sat upon the seawall
its haunches
weathered grey
and marveled at the August sun
which bore a golden ray
The screeching seagulls
played
Beautiful you!
What is natural beauty? Is it the pictures that we canvas in our mind?
Is it the perfection that comes from
DAWNWATCH
First a hint
and then a glimmer
drifting across a slow sky-
Dawn begins. A tint
dyeing the stars to dimmer
