The Beholder

 

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

this I learned when a soldier

What for some is beauty divine

others would not give a dime

 

What turns the heads of many

I would not spend a penny

Then I see the apple of my eye

and my heart does give a sigh

 

One man´s meat is another´s poison

for some they see what is awesome

Others go crazy and do swoon

whilst some stare blankly at the moon

 

Beauty is only skin deep they say

to this I can now say yeah

The outside shell of handsome beauty

can conceal nothing so fruity

 

Do not judge a book by its cover

if you search for a true lover

The best and beautiful to find

are those of sound heart and mind
