What is Beauty?

The word beautiful is an adjective and a noun. When it is used as an adjective, it is used to describe anything that is very pleasing or satisfying. It can be used to describe the physical appearance or the connotation of a literature. The beauty of flowers, gardens, dresses, and women are all examples of physical appearance. However, some people may say that this poem, this song, or this piece of literature is beautiful. They're praising the beauty of their connotation. When I see something adorable, I use the word "cute" more often than the word "beautiful", but I sometimes will used the word "beautiful" to describe some poems, some poems that rhyme, have symbolism, or form imagery. It is hard for me to determine what kinds of things are "beautiful", but I agree with the definition that anything that is pleasing to me is defined as "beautiful" to me.
