****I just wanted to thank everyone who gave me so much support on my first post..It really meant alot to me. I enjoy reading all of your work...*****


They say that beauty is in the eye of the
beholder-this simple sentence someone should have told her.

She walked around with downcast eyes and a smile harldy ever replaced her frown. She fell in love with the boy who had big blue eyes, but he never knew that he was the cause of her sighs.

She wished and prayed with all her might-that someday soon he would hold her tight. But she stayed silent not uttering a single word. Thoughts of "he'll never like you" she was soon assured.

But this boy with the big blue eyes...took this girls hand and pulled her aside. He looked deep in her eyes and gently touched her face and said three little words that made this girl cry.

What he said was simple but so sweet...
He told her YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL

It was these three words that she needed to hear and it was then she realized that love was nothing to fear.

A good idea to title this poem Beautiful - it is indeed quite beautiful. You did a great job here. You should try to get this one published into the poetry archives at www.netpoets.com I believe you'll find a link to do so at the top of your post.

This is a wonderful piece! I wish that all situations like this ended this way. Thanks for sharing!

Very nicely written. I liked it.....the 3 words weren't what I expected and that obviously made a huge difference....it's good he didn't say I LOVE YOU cuz then it woulda been a regular, common poem....noooooo this was different. Very nicely written here.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

A truly touching poem. I, too, liked the 3 words spoken at the end. Thanks for posting this one. It's unlike one I've ever read.
