.
When beauty overwhelms you
the tendency is to settle on
a simpler form of life
which in a way is
a sad, sad situation
Beauty should be humbling
Appreciation should not stagger us
but we are very human
No self-confrontation on
improvement possibilities
We may walk away frustrated
instead of challenging ourselves
We all have talents
By nature they are different
We must hone and develop,
become the best we can be
Let our own beauty break out
to be seen and admired
It is not pride or ego
We are teachers
trying to show the way
Let others witness our code of living
Be an inspiration to them
Let them set us free
