mirror mirror
Mirror, Mirror on the wall,
Who’s the fairest of them all?
Is it me with my small eyes and lips,
And to wide of hips?
Is it me with my pale skin,
And dimpled chin?
Is it me with my brown hair,
And my wrinkled clothes I wear?
Is it me with my gnarled fingers,
And the knots in my hair that always linger?
Is it me with my big thighs,
And my dull brown eyes?
Is it me with my ugly toes,
And my big nose?
Oh mirror, mirror on the wall,
I’m the fairest of them all.
My eyes are almonds, my lips are sweet,
And my hips always sway to the beat.
My skin is the perfect tone,
And my chin will always be my very own.
My hair is perfect just for me,
And my clothes will always fit you see.
My hands will always get things done,
And the knots can be undone.
My thighs have muscle from sports,
And my eyes are a chocolate sort.
My toes can always be painted a beautiful hue,
And no one has a nose like I do.
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
I know I’m the fairest, faults and all.
Beauty.
Beauty In Every Sense of the Word
Beauty and brains, well that’s a unique combination nowadays;
Beauty, brains, and a heart, that’s unique.
Radiating beauty, natural beauty without makeup
That’s what I look up to, that’s what makes someone beautiful.
Glowing with confidence, because outer beauty isn’t the only quality.
The greatest confidant; the hardworking volunteer;
The animal rescuer; the best friend;
The best guardian; the best overall human;
Most importantly, the best aunt.
Giving the shirt off your back, that’s no easy task;
Giving your best advice when nothing is an option;
Giving your all when no one else will;
Giving your heart when fatal illness strikes;
Giving hope when all hope is lost.
No person has stuck to their morals, ideals, or dreams as well as she;
Through disappointments and pariah;
Optimism isn’t strong enough for you;
But I hope this is;
I love you.
Who is the most beautiful woman to you?
How is beauty defined?
Is it eyes a shimmering green?
Is it hair as smooth as silk?
Is it the face of an angel?
Or could it be a virtue hidden inside?
A heart that overflows with love.
A kindness that touches all around.
Compassion that bursts through every shattered spirit.
Or is it her faith throught the darkest valley?
Even the name which she was given shines--
Amber a jewel, a precious gem.
A shoulder to the weeping world.
A shelter for the weary of heart.
The sweetest melody of song for the restless.
A breath of spring in the dead of winter.
Beauty that is so much more than can be imagined.
My sister, my friend; My morning, my light.
my sister
when i am down,my sister is around. when i need a friend i know she'll be there till the end. she's my sister like my mother and my best friend. their is so much to say,but hard to explain. i love her so much.
What beauty is
Respectfully with honesty
I'm calling out
Have you ever turned the voices off
and listened to yourself
Will you ever dance
In the moonlight pale
Among the vibrant colors of the night
Will you ever just let your spirit take flight?
Has it ever occurred to you
To never walk out of the house without paint
To just let the world see you for your natural face
Are you worried that you'll be rejected?
Afraid acceptance won't be extended?
A woman who will never sway to petty answers
A person who recognizes
Strengths and weaknesses work hand in hand
someone who still loves herself regardless
is the one to take notice of
When those magazines rage in the heads of those
who choose to spend their time on looking
if she turns away and likes how she is
if she’s without a twinge of self doubt or jealousy
at this ‘perfection’ at this contrived vision of ‘beauty’
is truly stunning in my eyes
How can you truly measure who is beautiful?
It is the one who can stand
In front of the glass and smile with pride
At the reflection looking back
And not be ashamed for the joy
Beauty in a Woman
Beauty in a Woman
Her hands have held babies that were so small,
She has even scrubbed crayon off a new white wall.
She has cooked many meals for the fam,
An order to obey was followed with, “Yes ma’m.”
She got all the kids up to go to school;
To learn from our teachers was always a rule.
She worked in the yard and pulled up weeds,
She spoiled us with our wants and of course our needs.
She wore her ring from the day she wed,
Faithful and true to her vows that she said.
She vacuumed, mopped, and got rid of dust;
Teaching to take care of our things was a must.
She always came to our high school games;
She would sit in the stands and chant our names.
She had a soft, soothing, and pretty voice,
Her love for the Lord was strong and her choice.
Every Sunday morning she was in church,
Finding her place with God was always her search.
No one knows how much she means to me,
Beautiful inside and out as you can see.
A devoted mom, wife, and God-fearing lady,
Her worth in this world is recognized daily.
Mother Earth
Sculpture of Mother Earth
Awesome!!!
That is awesome! You too see that mother Earth is the most natural and beautiful woman! Great job! Beautiful sculpture!
One of A kind Sister
The Most Beautiful Woman to me is
"My Sister Monica"
She Is My friend who has helped me through difficult times, She is my inspiration in many ways, When she is by my side the world is filled with life, My sister is a blessing to me always filling my heart with joy and love, She is my companion to whom I can express my feelings with, She is as sweet as chocolate and as smooth as fudge. Having my sister is not just a trend, It is knowing I can always turn to her because she is my best friend.
true beauty
Too many times we focus on the lips, the hair, the eyes, the figure;
too many times we see the outer self as the only true beauty.
But what we cannot see is what we need to remember;
their shadow follows them wherever they go and yet carries no face.
The form that exists simply in a shade of darkness tells the truth of true beauty;
the shadow outlines what the eye is too distracted to see.
A woman stopping at a stop sign to help an elderly person cross the street;
A woman taking time out of her day to serve food to the local homeless;
A woman who raises money for charities by ringing bells outside grocery stores;
A woman who comforts those who have no one;
A woman who steps forward to offer love to a parent-less child.
A woman is the essence of beauty, but her actions are her true beauty.
THAT WOMEN
There is a women whos eyes
are so pure as the sea and whos smile
brings happiness and joy to me
There is a women who knows me well and can
also be fair who i see every were
when i get scared she is there
There is a women who is beautiful to me
that women who i see is my mother waving
to me were ever she may be and i know
that she will always love me and be with me for eternity
The Most Beautiful Woman to Me
Hard-working, loving, caring, and forgiving. She has never walked out, and never given up. She has been through the worst, and never turned her back. Although I may not always agree with her, she is the strongest woman I know. She is my mother. Theresa Henson, is a woman that I have known for 17 years. She has been my inspiration in a lot of things. Although I may not always express my gratitude towards, I will always love her. Now is the time, where I am able to let it all out. Let her know exactly why in my eyes, she is the most beautiful woman.
She has never let herself go in a tragic time. She has never let me or my three sisters down. Even after her husband died, she stood strong. She did this for me and my family. She was and will always be a great woman. She has leaded me through the tough times in my life. She has allowed me to be who I want, and never criticized my choices. I may not always go to her with my problems, but I know that whenever I need her, she will be there for me.
She has never disappointed me, and has always loved me. I’ve seen her go through things I never thought fair, and times that would break anybody. Last year she went through a very rough time, the whole family did. We found out that her boyfriend of the time had murdered his ex-wife. He played the role very well, and used our family as his escape. He played if off as if she was missing, and it was her new boyfriend. This hurt our family, and broke us. We have never been the same. That tragic incident scared our family, and we will never be truly trusting. Although this was a very tough time, my mom stuck strong. She never let us see her down, and always proved herself.
She is the most beautiful woman I have even known. She is my mother, and I love her with all my heart!
Mirror Mirror on the
Mirror Mirror on the wall,
who's the loveliest of them all.
From fair skin to golden curl,
From soft, red lips to eyes of pearl,
wordly beauty is seen the best of all.
But what of strength, of dignity and truth,
what of intelligence, and heart so true,
and of friendship and sacrifice,
the one who is beautiful is the one
innocent of vice.
Beauty is inward light shining true,
golden hues and white and blue,
innocence and purity,
stength and intelligence,
sacrifice and honesty,
wisdom and inner magnificence,
you are the most beautiful of all.
One who is not yet
Nothing like how you imagine she will change the world
How you feel like she will stand up and say "I am sombody"
And know the world like the palm of her hand when she picks up a beautiful flower because she knows how she would react to its beauty
But she is not yet ready
Her beauty shows through her glistening eyes that will one day stare down the world and minimize its size
But now she only looks at those people who talk around her and the things that keep her eyes glaring
But she is not yet ready
The world has not yet fallen on her shoulders as she has only seen how tall the sky is
She never knows that one day she just might explore that place and see past the clouds into the stars and the galaxy
But still she is not ready
Only ready for the things that are simple
Only ready for the things that she can not understand because she does not know how
She is only still yet young and so she does not yet know
She will be beautiful inside and out more than now
She will be the next Oprah if she tried
She will be the next Lisa Ling and try to make a bigger change than she will ever know
She is my niece and a beautiful woman she will be when she grows
But still she is not yet ready
Uncomparable
Unbreakable like a diamond, but as fragile as a rose
The pain she endures, no one knows.
When the world knocks me down she catches my tears before they fall,
But who comforts her when her life hits a wall?
Doctors may tell her what’s wrong, but I know what’s right,
Not only is she my day but she’s also my night.
Although 5’5, she is eye level to a cloud.
Confident, yes, because I live to make her proud.
With beauty of a goddess and wisdom of the same
I’m honored to be the one she can claim.
With the grace of an angel, she’s like no other,
She’s one of a kind; I’ll always love my Mother.
lady in the sky
who is the lady in the sky looking down at me?
i hope she can see my spirit clearly
hopefully she sees that i inspire to be like her...
she is mother nature,
creating small wonders of the earth
she is the heavens,
so inspirational that her beauty seems unbearable
she is the goddess of light,
warming the hearts of all of earth's inhabitants...
or is she a mixture of them all...transforming herself into
the most beautiful woman of all
...for everyone can see beauty of the eye, but it takes a true visionary to see that beauty is not only skin deep, its the spirit that lies within
My Mom
The Most Beautiful Woman to me is
"My Mom"
My mom is...
A friend, when I am lonely,
A nurse, to heal and take care of me,
A teacher, when I don’t understand,
A disciple, who’s goal in life is to brng me closer to God,
A gourmet chef, who feeds me the best food,
A shopping buddy, when I can’t decide which shoes to buy,
A stuffed animal, that cuddles you me
and gets me through those tough times,
A story teller, who encourages me to let my mind soar,
An eagle, who holds me up so that I can fly over mountains,
A flashlight, who lights and leads me down the right path,
A map, that guides me when I am lost,
A painter, who brightens my world,
A missionary, who gives up everything to spread the love of christ,
A pet owner, who cleans up my messes,…
There are so many other things that you are,
But the most important is
My Everything.
True Beauty
True beauty always start from the inside,then it works itself outward. Shine from within and you will bring about peace and beautiful people!!!!!!
