Early Poem: BEAUTY - A MASTERPIECE OF POINTS

Poets describe it through verses;

Artists create masterpieces;

Lovers unravel it through passion;

And dreamers create a paragon.

 Sonnets, works of arts, romances,

Perfection filling all the senses.

Inside the mind and heart, of sanctity confined,

Beauty, how indeed can you be defined?

 With all the wisdom given to mortals,

It’s meaning put in books and pedestals.

Yet what it really is, remained obscure

– A quest for every sage’s adventure.

 Ah but mathematics seems has a method,

To define beauty in a concrete mode.

Simply that every solution

Must agree to a given equation.

 Points made into a curve; curves into a figure;

Figures into a sketch or a stature;

These then transform into a masterpiece anoints;

Indeed, masterpieces made of points!
