Believe it or Not
Nothing on this earth is Ugly

The thorn might be ugly,
But its sharpness is not.
The mud pit might be ugly,
But the lotus is not.
The coal mine might be ugly,
But the diamond is not.
The sheep might be ugly,
But the wool is not.
The chair might be ugly,
But the comfort is not.
The sweat might be ugly,
But the effort is not.
The roof might be ugly,
But the shelter is not,
My face might be ugly,
But my mind is not.
My body might be ugly,
But my heart is not.
I may be ugly,
But my soul is not.
Some times a beautiful thing can be a part,
Of something very ugly.
Or some times an ugly thing can be a part,
Of something very beautiful.
But I prefer to see beautiful things in both,
And if you do the same,
You will find that, nothing on this earth is ugly.
