Finding Beauty
By J. Lynne Moore

'Tis the dawn,
upon which beauty hangs;
and to the mother calls,
betwixt her labor pangs.

Beauty 'tis the seasons,
rolling one to another;
and in the hands...
that reach out to help a brother.

An ode to beauty
can be seen among the stars;
and within the soldier,
as he licks his battle scars.

The dew drips beauty,
from emerald blades of grass;
And sparks in the reflected humility,
of a broken looking glass.

Beauty CAN be found in mercy.
Beauty CAN be found in pain.
Beauty IS found beneath our skin...
Within the human vein.
