Aesthete ... Replete

Today's word is "aesthete" ... ES-theet ... a person who has or professes to have refined sensitivity toward the beauties of art or nature. (Dictionary.com)

Replete
To see the blue that's made of sky,
The fire that's in the rose,
To hear the ocean's secret moan,
And discern where breezes blow.

To know the music of the spheres,
In a symphony's full measure,
To the aesthete, all's an open book,
Created for his pleasure.
