The Beauty You See

by justnot2normal

I look in the mirror and finally see a sweet smile two pink lips so gentle and soft happy heartfelt eyes intriguing swirls of color pulling you into a deeper sea brunette flowing hair golden streaks shining down to my shoulders subtle curves bending down my sides a truly stunning form lightly tanned legs shaved smooth shortened perfection two dainty feet with ten tiny toes staggeringly grounded I look in the mirror and finally see the beauty you see

This poem seeks to cut out verbosity and focus on the images which words conjure--which is exceedingly fitting, as the overall image of the poem is of the narrator looking into a mirror. each stanza is stripped of extraneous words, composed of only the essential words needed to convey appropriate image. I think it works very well. Good work!
