Analysis of Brain and Beauty

Ankita Dutta 2004 (Bangalore)



We are nature's best creation,
Gifted with brain and beauty.
Both are taken into consideration.
However, beauty has more priority.

Beauty in reality is seductive in nature
That withers away with age.
Brain shows us its true purpose
That leads us to right stage.

Beauty offers short-lived pleasure.
As it departs, it never returns.
Brain offers genuine power
Of making the right decisions.

Beauty can deceive our sight.
Chances are acute of being victimized.
Let's listen to our brain to grow wise.
Let's jugde people by goodness inside.

Beauty often hides the real heart.
We can hardly come to conclusion.
Brain is the core of every human act
That aware us of dangerous illusion.
