BLACK MONA LISA

BLACK MONA LISA Art renaissance, a masterpiece did appear, A captivating portrait, both bold and sincere. Splintering ebony grace, a figure so rare, The Black Mona Lisa, with brown eyes and flair. Her visage, a canvas of shadows silent night, A drapery of contrast, a mesmerizing sight. Her ebony skin, like a moonlit night's kiss, Radiates elegance, impossible to dismiss. Her brown eyes are windows to her soul, They hold mysteries, stories we'd love to know.¹° With depth and warmth, they capture the gaze, Inviting the stare of all who occupy her space, They look upon her and are undoubtedly amazed. Some criticise this rarity yet she remains unfazed. In a world where beauty adheres to a mold, The Black Mona Lisa breaks free from the old. This isn't the archaic Mona Lisa you all knew. It's a rare painting, an artwork that pins your view. For within her lies a narrative profound, Such as resilience, triumphs, adventures unbound.²° With each stroke of the brush, colours disperse. Her existence, a testament to beauty diverse, A celebration of uniqueness, a universe to traverse. With her dark beauty & brown eyes that gleams, She reminds us that art is more than it seems.²5 VICK MANUEL POETRY {VMP} FORM: Rhymes Copyright ©? December 2023.
