How many new parents, at the viewing window naturally assume
That their baby is the most beautiful baby of all the babies in that room?
There are some panoramas we regard that create universal admiration
But even those at times are open to interpretation.
The sun rising over the mountains or setting beneath the sea,
A rainbow arching across the sky a songbird in a weeping willow tree.
There’s beauty in a smile, in a secluded walk along the sand
In a lover’s glance, a moonlit night or in the wrinkles on a baby’s hand.
Each person knows what beauty looks like but how do you surmise

And the magic in life is discovering the beauty that’s already there.

They knew the beauty that’s in front of us is best viewed from behind our eyes.
