dc beauty

beauty 'silences' me

like if i fade out, vanish and become just sensation

it imbues me, fulfills me, fills me

with a feeling of wonder,lightness, happiness and pleasure,

melancholy sometimes or longing

it touches every fiber

it comes in the form of an image, something i see

it can be a sound , something i hear

even a scent or a flavour

and also a touch

or a thought

a rose bush coming just into bloom

the look in someone's eyes, the color of an iris

or the print of a summer dress

a voice singing in the distance 

the sound of a particular word,

 or rain against the window when lying in a warm bed

honeysuckle on a warm evening

fresh sheets,a lover's skin,

warm goat's cheese and herb salade with a glass of chablis

cool water from a little mountain stream

a kiss on my forehead,

that  sticky, tiny hand in mine,

a warm embrace,

things coming out of the memory box in my head

sweet Nadine presented us with a marvelous opportunity

to wonder about beauty,

beauty is all around us

it's a matter of being open to it

for more beauty please visit Nadine's wonderful Tiny woolf place

and enjoy
