Beauty
A million times you and I have spoke of beauty.
Yet in truth we spoke not of her but of needs unsatisfied.
Beauty is not a need but an ecstasy.
Where shall you seek beauty,
and how shall you find her unless
she herself be your way and your guide?
And how shall you speak of her except she be the weaver
of your speech?
It is not an image you would see nor the song you would
hear.
But rather an image you see though you close your eyes
and a song you hear though you shut your ears.
Beauty is not a face, it is a light in the heart.
Beauty is life when life unveils her Holy Face.
But you are life and you are the veil.
Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror,
But you are eternity and you are the mirror.
