Tulips and cabbages,
Which one is more tasty,
Different people respond differently.
.
Human beauty is special,
But many are artificial,
Never ignore nature’s beauty.

I always try to be happy. That has been my number one goal since I was in college. When things really bug me, I try so hard to think of the funny side of what is happening. Hopeing that they will stop bugging me. Which leads to some pretty crazy thoughts? Make of it what you will. This is me. I hope you enjoy.

Most of us feel it, some don't. Some of us say it, some don't. Some may agree, some won't. Be as it may, the facts still remain.
A man should hear a little music, read a little poetry, and see a fine picture every day of his life, in order that worldly cares may not obliterate the sense of the beautiful which God has implanted in the human soul. (Johann Wolfgang von Goethe)

Thank you for your recent comments, Jingle.
Do people EAT tulips???
Tulips and cabbage
are an Alaskan moose feast.
Plant them both
To soothe that savage beast.
You couldn’t paint him with makeup
He’d still be ugly as sin.
But since he’s part of nature
He’s always going to win.
Love it
I’ve never eaten a tulip!
Cannot agree more with the last stanza Ji,…a lovely poem with so much truth. Thank you!! xx
I’ll take cabbages any day, LOL! Awesome post! Nature is a wonder-filled experience. Excellent work! =)

Beauty is found in all things.Tulips and cabbages are no exceptions
Hi Jingle ~~ Even though tulips are edible I’ll stick with good old cabage.
Very nice thinking here. Unique. 🙂

Nicely done! Very poignant. The distinction between the natural and the artificial is timeless.

Here’s a little present from me to you:
Sweet one. People are different, there is no two ways about that but people can be real and that should be paramount. Nice one!
Cheers.
I too personally believe that nature’s beauty is just incomparable!! After all, we are a part of it 🙂
Well said, Ji… thought provoking stuff!

Love the simple truth in this, Ji! What a sweet message.
Too many people do ignore natures beauty it is taken for granted. I loved the words in your beauty Haiku this week.
