True Beauty

Jessica Sipes

What kind of Beauty is true?
What kind of Beauty is pure?
What type of Beauty is sure
To rival the ocean view?
What is Beauty's hue?
How can you insure
True Beauty is not obscure?
How is Beauty birthed anew?
True Beauty comes from the heart
Where every real thing stems,
Inward Beauty God gave you.
But you must do your part
And cultivate those gems
So they flourish to many from few.
