Beautiful

Inspired by a  real conversation with the one I loved

Beautiful

 

 

 

I told her

 You are so Beautiful

 She said

 What do you mean by

 Beautiful

 My mind said

 Like those sunsets you see on greeting cards

 Overlooking the ocean of some exotic city

 Sensuous looking clouds explored by birds

 And the silhouettes of people unknown

 But my mouth said

Beautiful, you know

 

She said

 No I don’t know

 My mind said

 Like that flower that is not a rose

 It has the brightest colors seen

 Trimmed with the perfect offsetting hue

 Growing in the oddest place

 Yet it’s exactly where it should be

 Noticed

 But my mouth said

 Beautiful, you know

 She said

 No, I really don’t know

 My mind said

 Like the visions I have listening to good music

 The midnight sky when stars are so numerous

 The moon pushes its way through illuminating every eye

 The breeze is neither too warm nor too cold

 The entire world is at peace with itself

 But my mouth said

 God has shown His greatness

 In the whole of you
