Beauty An Essay Poem by Matthew Holloway

Beauty, what is it
How do we quantify its value?
How is it measured
The judge and the jury
What does it mean to us?
The thoughts provoked by it
The words lost by it
The arts and the songs
The beloved dedications
The free-flowing echoes
Of a reaction to a perception
Of something we find or call
Beautiful
The minds lost by it
The hearts broken by it
The lives changed and maned
The creation inspired by it
The world as we know changed
By it
Beauty
How is it known
What is it
Beauty
A scattering of letters
Forming a word
That makes so much
Of an impact on our lives
We stop
And look upon it
Transfixed or beloved
Held or lost within
Beauty, beautiful, alure
It is as we will always find it
Forevermore
