Beauty
A beautiful mirror
Displays an even more beautiful reflection
With a delicate brush
She combs her long auburn hair
She seems not to see me
As I explore the wonders
Of her bureau
Glittering crystal bottles
Entice me with intoxicating scents
I search for more treasures
Soft lace
Of her dress
Pretty rings and necklaces
Daddy gave it to her
Almost ready
She smoothes on her lipstick
A delicate pink
She looks like an angel
Daddy agrees

I actually love this! For some reason it reminds me of Beauty and the Beast. Probably all the talk about the mirror and all that. I like this because I feel like there’s something more to it, something hidden under the beauty. Reading this poem made me feel like I wanted to uncover what that was. Good job!
