Beauty
It has been said.
Beauty lies
in the eyes
of the beholder.
Might one ask.
Does beauty
in or of itself
recognize any bounds?
To voice an opinion
as to knowledge of beauty.
Must the beholder
be acclaimed expert?
In all truth.
Might an expression
of beauty be but
an affair of one's heart?

People often say that 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder,' and I say that the most liberating thing about beauty is realizing that you are the beholder. This empowers us to find beauty in places where others have not dared to look, including inside ourselves.

Beauty Of Eternal Truth!
Beauty radiated from eternal
Truth,
reflected in beholder's eyes,
Beholder's eyes are eyes of
eternal,
Empyreal looking at corporeal beauty,
Through mortal eyes,
Creator appreciating His creation
through,
Another creation,
Without which beauty has no admirer!

The Beauty in Us All
We all are beautiful inside,
Some just tend to think it isn’t so,
But where would all the beauty go?
We all have something interesting,
That is piercing to the soul,
So don’t doubt,
What your life is all about,
‘Cause beauty comes from the beholder's eye,
And not the accuser’s lips,
Because as it turns out,
That is what beauty’s all about,
The true beauty,
Is nothing but you.

Beauty-Eyed
We are trapped
Beauty Eyed
in beholder's
gaze,
expectations flush
iron icons
bind us;
Do not move
or blink;
a tiny shift
and beholder's view
is at once awry;
now disappointment,
because aspect new
has changed the view;
in a strobe shot
we are all caught
in expectations light,
flicker or blink
as we must
and we ruin
beholder's dream,
and pay double price
at the bar
where Bitter Drought
drinks.
What nostrums
and remedies,
what drunk variations
from Expectations Cup
dash Hope to fiery Death
unnoticed:
Expectations yours
but unmatched by mine:
signal we two then choke
most times
in the In-Between.

Eye Of The Beholder
If beauty is in the eye
Of the beholder
Where does it leave
A blind person
In a world more beautiful
Than we can only imagine
For they have no standards
To judge beauty
Only what is in their hearts and minds
Where true beauty is found

Here I Am To Worship - Chris Tomlin
Light of the world,
You stepped down into darkness,
Opened my eyes,
Let me see.
Beauty that made
This heart adore You
Hope of a life
Spent with You.
(Chorus)
Here I am to worship,
Here I am to bow down,
Here I am to say that You're my God.
You're altogether lovely,
Altogether worthy,
Altogether wonderful to me.
King of all days,
Oh, so highly exalted,
Glorious in
Heaven above.
Humbly, You came,
To the earth You created,
All for love's sake,
Became poor.
(Chorus)
I'll never know
How much it cost,
To see my sin
Upon that cross. (x 4)
(Chorus) x 3

A True Beauty
Beauty is in the eyes
of the beholder'
goes the old saying.
But true beauty
comes from within
an aura seen even
with closed eyes.
True beauty transcends
beyond physical limits
a sense of confidence
and faith in one self
True beauty is priceless
no equivalent in value
except for happiness
no money can buy
Do not ever regret
being not handsome
or beautiful in appearance
for true beauty overrules

Remember how in that communion only, beholding beauty with the eye of the mind, he will be enabled to bring forth, not images of beauty, but realities (for he has hold not of an image but of a reality), and bringing forth and nourishing true virtue to become the friend of God and be immortal, if mortal man may.N.B. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. See also Napoleon Bonaparte.

Skipover
Skip over
Not advisable
To reach conclusion.
In the conclusion
One may miss beauty.
Beauty lies in the eyes
Of the beholder though.
In this process
Joy pleasure sadness
Confusion awe fear
Disgust beauty and
Sublime evoked.

Death by Beauty
Beauty is the source of all things in day,
but then Death comes to take our sight away.
Beauty is the sower of love and peace,
then Death comes a knocking so it can reap.
Beauty 's in the eye of the beholder,
but Death comes when all that mess is over.
Most think that all hope has run astray,
when death makes true beauty fade away;
but I am here to tell you the truth,
that beauty will always be in you.
Beauty is such a magical thing;
It happens when the soul laughs and sings.
Death is such a horrible sight.
Death makes moods colder than dry ice.
The world can always devour
a beautiful flawless flower.
so, The price you pay for beauty's sin
is the kiss of Death upon your chin.

Beauty Forever
The Beauty -
Is not in her wear,
Nor her figure,
Or the way she styles her hair.
The Beauty –
Is in the beholder's eyes,
A passage to her heart,
Where the Love resides.
The Beauty -
Is not in her mole,
But in refection
Of her soul.
She cares - For her Passion shows,
O'er the past years,
It's only her Beauty
That grows and grows.

Sonnet: What Isn’t Beautiful?
What is not beautiful? What isn’t ugly?
’Tis the beholder who decides ably!
Beauty is not just color or contour;
’Tis the perception of the gray-matter!
To appreciate you need two things unlike;
Beauty exists even if you dislike;
Beauty is there in both white and in black;
There is true of Nature, when you think back.
Beautiful’s the wisdom of the old man,
And the silver hair of the old woman;
There is much beauty even in a thorn!
And the wildest flower that you scorn.
Things in Nature have an innate beauty!
Appreciation, our bounden duty.

Eye of the Beholder
You say...
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Well,
I'll put it to you this way...
Sometimes I'm not in the best of moods!
And my attitude can be crude and uncool.
I appreciate all your compliments...
Of which you say I've earned.
But I can 'be-holding' some ugliness,
You have yet to see.
And all the beauty in your eye,
Of what you might be beholding
Might be unfolding onto another scene...
Once you've seen me at my worse.
Especially being obnoxious,
Unapproachable and very mean!
That part of me,
Neither one of your eyes have ever seen.
