Beautiful People

Beautiful People

How beautiful it would be,
Just to look into the people's eyes
And see the beauty of their soul,
Instead of seeing their physical body,
And judging them only by that!
Every age has its own unique beauty,
But as we age, we are judged
By our appearance instead of achievements.
 Look into a person's soul,
See that person in his own right,
How far he has gone in life,
And what all he or she has accomplished.
Listen to her laugh,see her smile,
Listen to her experiences, share her tears,
Look into her eyes, feel her real warmth.
Many people bring beauty into this world.
No,not just by their physical beauty,
But by their positiveness, empathy,
Their sharing, giving, caring, loving,
Sacrificing selflessly and nurturing,
Not only others but their own selves also.
I would like to be surrounded by
Only such really 'beautiful' people,
In order to learn more and grow as a person
Just being in their noble presence.
There light is so bright,yet so gentle!
 You can't help but feel and see their soul.
To me, there is no other kind of beauty
Other than the beauty of a pure heart!
