Finding Beauty

I’m not keen on my double chin,

so I hold it way up high.

And that my waistlines spreading,

gives me sleepless nights.

I’m a little too preoccupied today,

with what is thought of me.

I know that if the truth is known,

you don’t see what I see.

We are so involved with ourselves,

that we have our blinkers on.

That reflection of us in the mirror,

well it really has it wrong.

The truth of how we really look,

is inside and tucked away.

Love stored in our heart and soul,

and what we give away.

The beauty that we look for here,

shallow and not true.

The essence of your beautiful soul,

is held inside of you.

Simply Me

I don’t really like my feet much, but they go from A to B

My hair is lank and frizzes, but it’s still on top you see

Then the in-between bits, from head to toe I go

With flabby tum, too small bum and bunions on my toes

I’ve prayed it could be better, in any little way

But I’m healthy and it’s working and I’m standing here today

Life in it’s simplicity, has taken care of me.

So I’m really truly grateful to be just simply me.
