BEAUTY WITHIN

As a brave oak
Dancing with the breeze so gracefully
sunrays caress her beaming smile blissfully
And as she dig out her glittering hues of tensile strength
An elegant goddess that does enthrone
And she has been envied on so many traces of old
For she would cry all times to be served gold.
Even with her coated facade and dazzling make ups
All glance failed to figure her build ups,
Ah! The strength she pushes to stand bold
Is truly a tale of beauty within to be told.
During the worse of racist's storms
where her wards were drowning in a suffocating norm
She found the lane to voice in a cage of foul hubs.

but it needs some work.
I like the title, although its a bit cliched,
your rhyming is generally good,
and I like the theme.
My criticism is mostly gramatical, as in line 3,
"And as she dig out..."
'dig' should be 'digs',
and there are others too.
Apart from that, try to eliminate as many superfluous words as you can, as well, and this poem will improve immeasureably.
Hope this helps.
