What Is Beauty? Poem by Nomaphelo Lange

What Is Beauty?

Rating: 0.5


Is this defined by what we wear on that occasion,
or by the brand that designed that outfit.
Is this defined by the colour of our skin,
or by the mascara that we put everday in our face.
Is this defined by the massive car we drive,
or by the interior and music that glow when we open them.

Is it defined by the smile people show when you pass by,
or the glow in your face everyday.
Is it defined by your undieng love for other,
or the caring and sharing that you have within.
Is it defined by the million acts we do or other,
or by the children playing in our back backyard.

Well-written poem which gives us food for thought. It stirs beyond superficialities right into the core of beauty. Thanks for this contribution!
