ESOTERIC BEAUTY

Like mountains hidden by misty fog
or pearls precious within oysters clog
so too is shrouded her innermost self
secretly lodged deep within her breast.

A beam of light directed on that spot
will show the color of a warm stream
of goodness radiating from her heart
paramount driving her from the start.

Kindness, empathy, charity distinguish
deeds, actions undertaken on her part
to assist, aid, care for the most in need
never considering her unselfish sacrifice.

Thus motivated by eternal principles
of compassion, generosity and love
happily she pursues her goals above
an esoteric beauty giving her utmost.
