"As if you were on fire from within.
The moon lives in the lining of your skin." 

                                              ~ Pablo Neruda   

Will we ever come to believe that beauty lives
in our hearts and souls?
In the physical body too?

A bit of the sun, the moon, the stars.
All flowers, trees, the seas.
Somehow the beauty of life and light itself
lives in what we are.

Such beauty within and all around.
May we glimpse it today.

If not with joy,
if some hurt holds us back,
let's sense it with faith.

Wishing sweet sightings of beauty for all,
Charlene
