Mona Lisa

Mona Lisa

An artist named Leonardo Da Vinci was born in Italy
In renaissance time his paintings were revolutionary
A special woman,a certain pose became extraordinary
Now displayed at the Louvre Museum as part of history

Da Vinci was a genius,as a philosopher,he knew too much
Sciences, arts,music,futuristic innovations as such
Apprenticed,then commissioned,he had taken most offers
The most famous were Mona Lisa and The Last Supper

Her name was Mona Lisa as we all know
Her mystical enigmatic face kept staring at you
A perfect anatomical distinction of her delicate hands
Da Vinci's masterpiece,so perfect consider it grand

Mona Lisa's portrait in somber color palette
His blending,volume,form,layering was in depth
The imaginary landscape in the background added to realism
The imagery in words,his poetry became part of romanticism

Her identity remains uncertain, her beauty debatable
For me, what made her so famous is amazingly incredible
At one time the portrait was stolen,an unbelievable crime
Back in the Louvre,restored,her smile is still sublime

Ah..,Mona Lisa the greatest portrait of all time
