Beauty

Oh! What is beauty?

Was the thought

That I searched for everywhere

Hither & Thither

High & Low

     But nay I found it anywhere

And one fine day

When the skies were blue 

And the morning sun

shone bright on me,

I found it-

    In the heart of a child

    And in all humans as it may,

Oh! I saw it shine so bright

As if it were crystal clear.

It shone like a diamond

In the darkness of the night,

Giving happiness to one & all

And solace to the deprived.

So, If man searched deep 

       Within one & all

  Then he would sure

   Find the elusive one,

       With joy’s abound

       And peace of mind.

If that be -

   Oh! Then what a place

   This world might be.
