A Tribute to Beauty
Beauty of a woman lies not in her skin,
It comes from all the goodness, springing from within.
Beauty’s not in dimpled chin, nor shining eyes a trait,
The beautiful are gracious; their grace is not in gait.
“Shining hair! Glowing skin!” billboards try selling dreams,
But beauty doesn’t emanate from bottled gels and creams!
Wrinkled skin looks beautiful too, on hands that care to caress,
Beautiful even a crackling voice that calms your mind’s duress.
If you care to see, there’s a beauty in every home,
We call her 'Mother dear', she’s virtues’ epitome.
With charming countenance and kindness in eyes,
Her magical touch could transform tears into smiles.
As God could not be everywhere, they say he created Mother.
Made sure to give her the beauty of Love, Love that doesn’t wither.
To the mother in every woman, this ode is a small tribute,
Your ceaseless beauty, O’ Woman, in reverence I salute.
