How indeed does one measure beauty ? Is it all about the "looks" or does go deeper... the heart, soul and mind... Just thoughts !

Beauty !
Can you help me to clarify
about beauty and justify
Is it pleasing and impressive
could it ever be excessive ?
a combination of qualities
could you say this is arbitrary ?
Maybe especially good to look at
do you think they'd relate to that ?
How about physical attractiveness
Is there any real acurateness !
Could it then be so very good ?
surely you can't be misunderstood
Perhaps it's just plain attractive,
Would I see you then reactive ?
The possibilities are so great
the list so long at any rate
sublime, gorgeous, magnificent
perfection, grandeur, radiance
glamour, glitz, sex appeal
all of these may be so real,
but beauty is indeed
what your heart and soul do feel.

I've always thought beauty could never be defined by looks alone. The heart is a huge part of it. I've never seen your face, but I do think you're beautiful.
beauty is the moon as it rises from within your eyes and stars reflecting the essence your soul and the shape of your thoughts surrounding the aura of your body ...
excellent poem!

"Beauty!" is a poetic flower scented with the breath of creation.
Andre Emmanuel Bendavi ben-YEHU
beauty is sometimes in the wrinkles
time has delivered
in the scars that have been endured
in the relentlessness of the human spirit
thanks for the reminder,
