This poem I wrote while during the beginning of my blogging journey in which I have infused the names of some famous high-end woman’s luxury brands and finally a simple revelation which we forget in day to day jugglery of existence and insecurities of survival…
I am a Diva.
Smoked my eyes with
Christian Dior 5 color palette.
A dash of Mac Ruby Woo
for my supple lips.
Hair sleek with chic spring hair-do;
Curly flirty amuse for my fingers.
Versace couture gown in sea green
To subdue my fiery spleen.
Time stands still
With Rolex on my wrist.
Cartier a carat or two
Upholds my alluring ensemble.
Modern Muse by EstΓ©e Lauder
Is the signature aroma I resemble.
With Gucci on my hand
And Jimmy Choo on my feet,
I feel invincible
And no one can defeat.
I feel flawless
I feel like a goddess.
But then I forget
much to my chagrin –
Three priceless words
Beauty lies within.
It does, great post.

oh yes we have all forgotten the golden words .. beautiy lies within and I dont think the versace’s or the gucci’s do anything great . I dont own any of the so called brands , I did go to the showroom and did try them out but somehow i was not comfortable.. and I found EXACTLY, same 100% same clothe same stitching somewhere else π

Physical beauty is fleeting but what’s inside is always there and a lot more enticing than a bit of ankle, in my mind. It’s also better for the bank balance to have inner beauty, why pay for a name when you can make somebody’s life more pleasant by being yourself and spreading the smiles.

I put this poem in a special category because it has so much social intelligence – you integrate the pop culture – and those brands – and then smoothly – but abruptly – give us the truth zinger at the end- beauty lies within. But the tone is not judging or angry – it is layered with an understanding of why those items are needed/wanted/used/enjoyed/lusted for, etc. – and then a simple reminder of where real beauty comes from.
