Its True Beauty

by Kris Lynn   Oct 14, 2004


Have you ever looked at the world today and
wondered why things are the way they are? I
have. I've looked at things in many perspect-
ives and I see the same thing. I see people
taking things for granted and flaunting what
they have to those who are less fortunate. I
see that the less fortunate people are more
open-minded and grateful. I see that people
are judged by what they look like, how they
act, and even by what they believe in. I see
the hurt and anger in their eyes when they
hear those hurtful words. I see a country
become unified, and helpful. I see police
officers, firefighters, soldiers, and people
who just want to help. I see those people
risk their lives to help others. Our world is
a beautiful place. No matter what we have or
who we are, when we look around, instead of
seeing discrimination, hate, and judgment,
we can see hope, faith, love, and unity.

    oh crap, I spelt rhythm incorrectly. And the poem I meant was The Ultimate Moment. Oh well, again, an interesting poem.

    Brilliant poem as usual, Christina, but this one especially struck a chord with me. I wonder about silly little things like this myself. I noticed that when you read it out loud (I was alone at the time!) it has a great rythym to it, even though - or perhaps because- it's halfway between poetry and prose. It seems to me that the less structure you give your poems, the better they flow; like the Shining Moment, I think it was called. But then again, what would I know? Again, a great little piece. By the by, if you're interested, I've got some new poems posted. Oh crap, I've rambled. Anway, keep it up.
