I am Beauty

I open to the Rose,
And find myself,
Deep within perfumed folds of pink,
Drunk with beauty!
I open to the song of the bird,
To hear the music of my soul,
Singing free!
I open to the sky,
And find myself floating,
Soft and loving as a cloud!
I open to beauty and I open to myself,
I embrace beauty and know it as myself,
I let it in,
And let it shine.

Creative and inspirational writer of stories, poetry, and haikus I am also an addictive reader of novels, poetry, haiku, and children's storybooks. I am the author of SOUL POETRY a book of inspirational poems, verses, and quotes published by Partridge India (2015) The Maker of Miracles (2006) published in the USA by Dorrance Publishing and My Journey with God (2008) published under the banner of Sai Towers, India is the narration about my spiritual journey. My new poetry book INK Echo of life and love published by ร‰ditions de Lโ€™Ocean Indien (2019) in Mauritius, my birth country is a collection of love poems extolling the feelings and desires of women. The Princess and the Crow is my first storybook for children, released by Austin Macauley Publishers London in March 2019. Two years later, I was inspired to write and published two other books - WAKASHIO, a storybook for children, and PINK MOON - AN ANTHOLOGY OF HAIKU POEMS. I love to write. I guess my writing has a special clichรฉ of island ๐ŸŒด life, natural, unpretentious, and full of beauty.

    1. Hi Nitin! Glad to see you back. Thank you for your appreciation of I am Beauty. I make the use of metaphors in my poetry and here when I declare to the rose ๐ŸŒน that I open to her, it may not necessarily mean that I am opening to a flower. If we stretch our imaginationโ€˜the roseโ€™ may mean a woman to a man or a man to a woman.In poetry, the writer is creative and he/she has a broad, all compassing imagination. For example, one may have eyes to contemplate a rose ๐ŸŒน but the poet sees the rose ๐ŸŒน his/her gaze penetrates deep inside the closed petals to capture the essence of beauty.
      I love all flowers,
      I love the rose too,
      They are all my favorites.
