parts of me scattered, throughout infinity
how i've struggled to know the whole of me
searching for anything i can discern
opening new while acknowledging learned
there must be some kind of wisdom here

i'm not a beauty queen, never aspired to such
though thought i'd some measure of elegance
and yes, what if that's my calling card
no concern to figure the whole of me
but to wear my experience well

do you know? have i told you?  
you've probably guessed
that to me you're the picture of elegance
yes, yes, you wear it so well
weathering the eons that have cast their spell

upon you,
My Beauty Man

Whether  you are "beautiful" on the outside, matters not to me--for you certainly are beautiful where it counts!---on the inside!---and on the blue pages!

A marvellous write!

Loves 'n hugs,

Thank you Midnitesun and Earth Angel.  I try to find the beauty in everyone...sometimes it's a struggle to find it in myself, but in THAT man, no problem!  And he returns it to me, so, so...   Have you looked at the moon tonight?

Thanks Talia, it was a nice surprise to find your message this a.m.  I've been in a slump with my writing lately, I hope it's over soon!  Take care.  ~K~

"parts of me scattered, throughout infinity

this is deeply beautiful, and intimate.
