Secrets drape covers of tranquil silence
onto protective sheaths;
nurturing a valued mystery
Beauty worthy of appreciation
reflects a miraculous master plan
-formation of a breathing creature-
From rigid outdoors to
perfectly polished circular treasures
We are made aware,
"True beauty lies under
hard skins"






Why do I even enter contests when you are participating in them!
Hahaha. Great work love. I absolutely loved every part of this poem from the starting line to the finish. It was a stunningly beautiful write. Good luck in the contest, not that you need it.
