Image: Mona's Enigmatic Smile (here)yearnings to find
what could be so specific
on the natural inquisitive mind
that a Mona wannabe could speak
all of the thoughts and guiles
the magic of da Vinci
that one succumbed just to a smile
under the spell of a mortal's ingenuity

I wonder if it was a spell or just madness that someone decided to throw cake at her. Sigh. Great poem.

Oh yes....I've always wondered what sat in front of her, or what thoughts she was conjuring that brought on that smile that has been adored by so many.
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely stellar writing, Hank! Wow! Thank you so much for adding your voice to the prompt ❤️❤️
ReplyDeleteHer famous smile lives forever...
ReplyDeleteThat smile is so mysteriously captivating.
ReplyDeleteMere mortal, but genius, too. I wonder if he had any idea how famous or iconic her smile would be. Or if she did. And I wonder what she was thinking.
ReplyDeleteOne does wonder! Wonderful write, Hank.
