Her face, was looking really so true
A face that looked pretty, a face that looked fresh and new
Mona Lisa - her smile charmed everyone
Because of her face, everyone's hearts she won
Though only a painting, there seemed to be silent life in the art
The painter (in the painting) seemed to have put his full heart
Oh! A terrific painting, with beautiful things
Priceless - maybe worth infinite shillings

Hello Gaurang,
ReplyDeleteI really have enjoyed your poetry. I read your poem entitled, "Mona Lisa," and I thought and felt how beautiful your work is. I have always felt in my heart, I sure wish I could have been like you when I was your age. You are a good young man and a brilliant young poet. Please, keep writing such good poetry.
