Wish could cry out the
incentives against the
isolation
Could gather courage for a
minute ressurection
A personality tainted with
lies
A false rumour full of pride
A shared piece of demise
A sanctified prayer for a
fake smile
Justice, I asked for out of
the pain of undone
A guilt that stroke without a
chance to surrender
How far does one falsify the
conspicuous change
A resentment that drowns
in with a shattered mania
for revenge
No more could I blame
anyone else
Redempted soul was all
that I fed
Rest all turned out to be a
wicked dream
The anger raged onto the
desperate theme
The darkness pierced
through the heart so bad
Can't think of any better
daunt to catch
Still can't dare to contradict!
But can't accept it either
Her mysterious smile!
Spoke revolting silence’s bile
Prior to chewing her file
Magnificent eyes
Though eyeshades exiled brief style
What words did she store in sigh?!
Tranquilly resting
Soft poems she grasps quickly
Portraying warm monarchy
Her choka poems knew who!?
Her signature revealed two
Fingers are syllables’ queue
Mona Lisa heard
Thunders laminate trajet
Dehiscing Alps behind her
Rivers grow at once
Meadows steam in an instance
Melting flexible substance
The French bridge slithers
TGV rushing jewels
Challenging wind’s high fevers
Steaming beach can bleach
Baking landscapes and seaweed
Stampeding music beneath
Is the collider
Baking tears six feet under?
Shown at left elbow’s corner
If you look at the
Print one foot far… turn over
See… falling dizzy comet?
Where did she go to?
Riding her chariot’s furrow?
To church? Her hands’ prayer fold
Her wedding ring is
Cherished with great love for him
Their children behind singing

By: Nadia F. Shahwan - April 2009. Note: This is an innocent discovery of the Mona Lisa's
beauty.
The drive is not short
Right, left, right turn at sleeve’s font
Four people a prayer hold
Mona Lisa cried
Her left cheek pastes a wet smile
Her right wet hand hid the time
But, she typed her line
Using her mouse to save time
Splendor poetry’s soft rhyme
No handkerchief dear
Just follow the tepid stream
America lives mild dream
Mona Lisa is
Mellow and follows sunbeam
Her chest’s hearty children’s gleam
Her forehead with band
Wavy hair, loose, every strand
No pony tail her hair had
Clad her noir jacket
Smile! No lip-gloss! No laughter!
Praying to God the Savior
The big S is shown
Saint Bartholomew calls
All churches to run prompt course
To cry blameless souls
Jesus Christ hugs only those
Who are knocking heavens’ doors
Shown on her right sleeve
Majestic stairs to grant grief
On Christmas Eve by the tree!
