Beauty, I ponder who are you?
Are you the drops of the rain which relieves the thirst of the earth?
Are you the sunshine spreading diamonds in the rivers apart?
Are you the rainbow reciting the rhythm of happiness in the sky?
Are you the stars brightening the night like pearls scattered so high?
Are you the melody in the chirruping birds at the break of the day?
Are you the tears of the bride hidden within her reddish veil?
Are you the vermilion adorning a woman's head?
Are you the never ending hope in the lover's heart?
Are you the sorrow of separation or the merry of unison?
Are you the celebration of triumph or the building strength in failure?
Are you the fear of a bloodcurdling nightmare or the decoration of a morning dream?
Are you the wishes for the loved ones or the innocence of a child's imaginations?
An emotion, an expression, a scene or a shadow, beauty!
I ponder again who are you?
I yearn an answer which I may never know as you as you are so undefined.
