Best Mona Poems

Absolutely enchanting I thought ~
As I drew the curtains wider, to allow in a bit more light....
Returning unto the canvas and dipping my brush
Into a slightly brighter shade of beige 
Thinking perhaps just a touch more violet, a dab of red, and, a stroke of...

Leonardo’s Mona Lisa has nothing on you 
with her familiar face we’ve seen for years;
but your young beauty that’s so fresh and new,
leaves men around you seeking new frontiers.

Your olive smooth complexion soft and fair;
that lovely smile with tender moist pink lips.
Your chestnut eyes and...

You, monumental, pose inside the portrait,
In figure of a pyramid
Construed to be elite
Your right hand, rest above your left hand,
Hints that you're a virtuous woman,
With those slightly sullen arms,
I can tell, that you are pregnant,
Only to remind me, how powerful woman can be
As the carrier...

A period of youthful vim ferments
as coruscating golden flecks in eyes 
that mesmerise and tantalise, give rise
to secrets in my breast to stir, foment.
The xanthous tresses that cascade torment. 
My eager and impressionable sighs
that echo every pirouette and pliés,
a fleeting intercession of lament.
A maverick when...

La Gioconda or Mona Lisa is the name I’m called
When our eyes meet I know you’ll be enthralled

I sit here so serenely in my gorgeous gilded frame
People flock to see me, they love to say my name

Mona Lisa, people coo as they look at my...

Humble Olive Eloisa
Went one day to work in Pisa
She posed for awhile
Behind flashy smile
She stood in for Mona Lisa.

One more question… say
Could Mona resemble mount?
Appearing as a huge fount!

Could Lisa… if so 
Resemble Li? A black horse!
The prettiest mount of all?

In Lishan’s bliss lap
Where hot springs foil blissful map
Lisa taken from Lishan?!

Lastly, could Mount Li
Be mirror mount in Far East
When Columbus spews soil’s...

Iambic Pentameter

A renaissance delight beguiles our sight.
Such enigmatic smile on face doth hold
our wonder why such cheer's in gentle light,
and hidden secret's veiled from view untold.
What name do we ascribe to model's grace.
Is she from noble family fame and ease,
but certain nomen's sore to know...

More than five hundred years is quite a while
for the time we have gazed on your enigmatic smile.
A beautiful woman’s portrait painted long ago,
crafted by one of the greatest artists we know.
“La Giaconda” has been an alternate alias.
Your creator has been hailed a creative genius.

Inside she cries
once more she dies 
as Mona Lisa smiles
She paints on dreams
without the means
to live them for a while

On puppets wings
her smile still sings
to fool the world outside
Tho cuts are borne 
from loving thorns
that ravage deep inside

She'll bury deep 
and none shall weep
no tears...

I saw this darling little chick,
she looked a swinging geezer.
I thought I’d move to get in quick.
Her name was Mona Lisa.

I thought she had a perfect face,
a most bewitching smile.
She swayed with such amazing grace.
Oh my!  What lovely style.

 “Hello my darling!  By...

When I look at the Nile or Niger
My heart overflows with joy for such a wonder 
As currents daringly flow on each iconic river 
Every fountain has wealth embedded in its waters
Each mountain, sealed by the richness of history
This is the reason I recognize a...
