What Makes a Woman Beautiful?

Beauty, its said
Comes from the soul
From within.

Those soul-mirrors
The eyes.

Her body may be old
The light of her beauty
Is in her eyes.

The curve of her lips
The dance
From within.

The flame of a passion
Long extinguished
From her youth
Still dances in her eyes.

Compassion
Acceptance
True beauty
From within.

Very true my friend. Lovely words but, how many can see this kind of beauty?

The flame of a passion never dies though.

Not enough men, it would seem, Daniela, can see this; particularly in this modern world; its youth culture, and all of its superficiality...

It's a shame that many men do not see the beauty within us,.Very true words my friend, thank you so much for your appreciation!!.

I have found that the men don't look at the eyes unfortunately - thus unless you have a beautiful figure - they don't bother looking at you at all. The story of my life. Thanks LCBR.

Any female sorcerer,
Creation of an angel from darkness.
Creates magic kisses,
Captivating a part of men's soul.

Hi!

Yes! Beauty comes from within.....
That was like "once upon a time"

But alas now everything is disguised n changed...

But nice thought...

Nice poem here..I too believe the eyes are the window to the soul and beauty comes from within ... outer beauty changes for many reasons and we all find different features attractive ...likewise inner beauty can change ...thought provoking poem ... thanks :)
