Array ( [sid] => 111670 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Beauty [time] => 2005-12-17 17:16:23 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Beauty's internal
in what we believe
it's best represented
in thoughts we conceive

Beauty I argue
is only skin deep
reflected in effort
put into upkeep

Beauty is kindness
the laughter we share
in opening our hearts
to show that we care

Beauty, I tell you
is not what one knows
but a thing to be measured
from your head to your toes

Beauty is love
everything we hold dear
it's seen in expression
in faith and in fear

Beauty, you know
is the shape that we take
judged by the impression
appearances make

Beauty's in everyone
in young and in old
a thing to be shared
in the hearts that we mold

Beauty, you lie
for it's not what we share
it's not in our hearts
but the skin that we bare! [comments] => 5 [counter] => 469 [topic] => 43 [informant] => unbreakable [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

The two tones of voice in this work make the poem move forward, like watching a debate from the outside. I like how you emphasized the difference with italics... as for the words themselves, I think your choice was fantastic and something we should all take with us.

Well here's a post that I missed! Beauty's really so hard to put your finger on at times, and I liked the argument style this is written in. It's kind of funny which one gets the last word, it was an ending i enjoyed (to be honest I have no idea which side is right, as you'd usually find me somewhere in the middle of a conversation like this one, but anyways...). My favorite lines were probably the last ones, and those that made up the second stanza, as the rhymes there stand out to me for some reason--I guess it was because sounded good. All in all another great write.
