A collection of different kinds of poetry that I write in my free time. I tend to base my more artistic writing, like in this book, off of metaphors and allegories; try to work out the puzzles in each poem. Hope you enjoy!

beau•ti•ful /ˈbyo͞odəfəl/ adjective adjective: beautiful 1. pleasing the senses or mind aesthetically. 2. of a very high standard; excellent. 

 When we hear the word beautiful, many images pop into our mind. For example, people gifted with extraordinary genes or that bustling city that never ceases to look anything but perfect. Although there are so many other small and rather subtle things in life that are beautiful, that make the adventure of life so much more thrilling and exhilarating. Do you know what is beautiful?
