Beauty, If There's Beast Poem by Aniruddha Pathak

Beauty, If There's Beast

Rating: 5.0


We all hail flower's beauty,
Thorn's duty the least,
And no'ne feels guilty.

Hate for hideous face,
No thought for fine grace,
But beauty be if there's beast.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
We all like flowers and generally hate thorns as the beast. But thorns do have a role to play. Thorns protect the flower, say, rose which is vulnerable. Poets are especially biased.

" Hate for hideous face, No thought for fine grace, But beauty be if there's beast." lovely expression giving caution to those blind adorers of beauty

Thank you dear poet. Providence has made this world full of dancing dual's. The dual as such seems meaningful, not its polar-dwelling cousins. Beauty is no beauty without the beast inasmuch as day has no meaning without night, pain without pleasure and so on. I blame poets here. How many have written about thorns? How many on rose?

Of course, a very thoughtful poem about a man's fascination of flowers and indifference to thorns. Thanks for sharing.
