She's beautiful
Not because she's on a
     magazine cover
But because like her
     there's no other

She's beautiful
Not because she has her
     own make-up line
But because her ways are
     so sweetly sublime

She's beautiful
Not because she can, with style
     walk the walk
But because she can, with style
     talk the talk

She's beautiful. . .
                    . . . Just because

If only all men treated/felt about women as such (or at least had the nerve to say the words and let us know how they feel)

Right on! It's hard to put into words exactly, so you did a great job of bringing concept of beauty to every mind. Very enjoyable, loved reading it.

Beautiful poem, Sven.  As I'm sure you know, true beauty always comes from within.  

Wonderful writing here, my friend.

Beautiful my friend.  You seem to know just what to say all the time, and have something to write about.

Sven, I can't believe that I missed this gem!  Where have I been?!  What a beautiful heart you have to proclaim that it is a woman's inner beauty that makes her beautiful and not all the makeup and superficial masks that she wears.  I loved this!  Well written!  

Take care,
Melissa Honeybee
