A poem about beauty

by Oliver Drewman

Beauty is the arms that hold you
In the worst and darkest night
Beauty is a child's drawing
Scrawling love as best they might
Beauty is in trees cool shadow
During scorching heat of day
Beauty is the cricket's song
When stillness comes to have it's way
Beauty is the time we're missing
While we rush around too fast
Beauty is the train ride's moving
Cross the countryside at last
Beauty is in conversations
Giving others comfort's breath
Beauty is in being present
Silent comfort mourning death
Beauty's seen in ugly places
When one looks, instead of stares
Beauty's Grace's other sister
That's seen when people start to care

Author's Note: Without Grace and Beauty our lives are meaningless. Grace in Christ, Beauty in His love.
