Godfrey Morris - Where Does Thy Beauty Lie?

Is it on thy fairest face
or in a Mona Lisa smile?
Does beauty rest in a red red rose
or in its fainted scent?

Where does thy beauty lie?
In the charm of the radiant sun
or in the warmth it brings?

Does it roams in the realm of
the deep blue sea-
or on the crystal sands, of roaring shores?

Is it in thy flawless voice
or in thy words conveyed?

Where does thy true beauty lie?
Is it the sparkle in these eyes?

Godfrey Morris
