Beauty Comes

...in the face of darkness
on shadow feet –
long and silent,
she moves like a mistress,
entwining herself with all
that cannot be seen –
an impassioned reminder
that light can only be gained
through her eyes –

beauty comes.

Beauty is…

    Ignoring your rather unphallocentric assumptions as to beauty’s gender. I really like what has come out of your mind blender. Unless you want this reply to go on and on this way, I suppose that I ought to go ahead and send her. heehee I slay me! Love you, girl: Roooosty

  • Kristin Reynolds replied

    hahaha. beauty comes in all shapes and sizes, this poem, however, came from this gal, so she, is she and that’s that! heehee. love, me

    As to your reply to my sardonic comment. She is the only beauty that I need. She is She, We are We. And that’s that, which is all that there is to say, because, generally when one says “that’s that” it is intended to end a discussion. It is kind of like saying goodbye to the telephone freak. I will say it twice before begging pardon for interrupting and asking, “Are we having a problem understanding what it means when one party says good bye to the other?” A nice way of saying, The good modifying my bye just transformed its modified to riddance. And, that’s that! Love, R in one of his more playful and sardonic moods, which leads me to think about….just kidding. Do you even need for me to articulate what I think by this time? You write I worship, exclamation point.

  • Kristin Reynolds replied
