The beauty of life is the materialistic lies
that say to have a better life you have the better things
is better really better?
the real beauty of life are the things we are giving
not the material things like purses or bags
but the breath of a newborn baby,
or the growth of a tree
the real beauty of life is the glow of the sky
or the shimmering due on the leaves
of a Lily of Nile in the morning light

I really enjoyed this poem. It acts as a reminder to focus on the important things, not all things materialistic. We live in a culture controlled by consumerism, but that doesn’t mean that we can’t take the time to focus on “the real beauty of life”.
