BEAUTY
By Frank E. Henrich May 17, 2009
Beauty is a shining star
Beauty is a chocolate covered nut
Beauty is a strawberry sundae
Beauty is hope for eternal life.
Can life provide beauty?
Can sadness provide beauty?
Can joy
provide beauty?
Yes, if God lives in you.
Oh God! Stay with me always,
Make mundane
items flashy,
Make a common meal a delight,
Let little things sprout joy & beauty.

I CHOOSE BEAUTY
By Frank E. Henrich Jr. Sept 23. 2007
I choose
beauty,
Yes, say I, choose beauty.
You say, what beauty is here.
In this placid life?
I say, there is much,
You just have to look for it.
Take my office.
Your office, you
say,
Why it is plain Jane!
Oh! not so, there are pictures
And a cross on the wall,
A
beautiful hand carved cross.
And the pictures portray
An Italian romantic seaport,
My Mother
waving from
My old home in Lennox,
My family in many images,
Along with my naval ship at sea.
Strip the room of all these
And then there is the beauty
In the sky blue colored walls,
We have to look for beauty.
Oh! you say I am loony,
But I say I am happy.
