Beauty Defined?

How do you define beauty?
Is it a drop of water slipping down a window pane?
Is it the delicate veins of a leaf?
The shower of petals as the wind blows them from a tree?
The transparent wings of a mayfly?
How can it be defined?
Is a flawless pearl more beautiful,
Than the iridescent colour of a Dragonfly?
Or the eyespots on a butterfly's wings?
Who is the arbiter of beauty?
Can the ugliest be beautiful on the inside?
Is the truth more beautiful than a lie that makes someone feel better?
How do you define beauty?
Why do you want to?
