Leonardo Vs Michaelangelo
How can we compare you! Two great men of history!
Known for your legacies of beauty, and creative minds,
Artists within extraordinary boundaries of brilliance,
Geniuses that you were! We adore your work! With praises.
(Leonardo from Vinci)
Vinci! Your place of birth! No surname from father, born out of wedlock,
Your beauty grace and design always followed your life,
Engineered with scientific futuristic visions for inventions,
They called you! The greatest painter of your era! Logical, not mystical,
(Michaelangelo Italian sculpture)
Your mother died when you were six, but nothing could stop your greatness,
Painter, architect, poet, engineer, sculpturer,
You were often called the divine one, awe-inspiring grandeur,
Four years to paint the Sistine Chapel in all its glory and fame.
We heard sad reports, that the two of you had some kind of dispute,
An anonymous writer! Nobody knew for certain,
They presumed some kind jealously between you!
Both of you were so dedication and commitment to your work,
Leonardo and Michael, you were so alike in your imaginativeness,
So advanced in creating astounding works of art,
This is why we pay tribute because we admire and applaud you,
Two renaissance wonders! Leonardo’s Mono Lisa! Michaelangelo’s David.
