That Intrinsic Beauty

There's a certain beauty
Unseen by the naked eye
It is only felt,
from waves of emotion
that flutter like
the rich ruby red
of first autumn.

They rest softly in awe
at the feet of
unparalleled dignity and grace
which transcends any physical form.

A vault of hope opens
as nature's pearl
in all its unassuming elegance,
inspires one's soul
to rest within its lustre.

The strains of life
become crushed to dust
and none are immune
from the wings of honour
that intrinsically enfold
and soothe
the most weary of spirits
in genuine palpitations
of liberty.
