You are beauty
"The moon lives in the lining of your skin." -Pablo Neruda
Take this quote as inspiration to find the beauty and the infinite potential that lives within.
Neruda had a knack for connecting the human reality with the natural world, whether in the context of a love poem, as here, or a historical account, as in "Canto general," his epic retelling of American history. What makes this line so beautiful is that it extends human proportions to encompass all living things. Love causes everything to become concentrated and revealed in one particular person. If you really like Neruda, check out Red Poppy at www.redpoppy.net. It's a non-profit set up to create a documentary about Neruda, publish his biography, and translate his works into English.
