Is it on thy fairest face <br />or in a Mona Lisa smile? <br />Does beauty rest in a red red rose <br />or in its fainted scent? <br /> <br />Where does thy beauty lie? <br />In the charm of the radiant sun <br />or in the warmth it brings? <br /> <br />Does it roams in the realm of <br />the deep blue sea- <br />or on the crystal sands, of roaring shores? <br /> <br />Is it in thy flawless voice <br />or in thy words conveyed? <br /> <br />Where does thy true beauty lie? <br />Is it the sparkle in these eyes?<br /><br />Godfrey Morris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/where-does-thy-beauty-lie/
