"Portrait" by PaulPerrona In my mind, the hand of inspiration Flies upon the canvas of imagination And creates with crystal precision there A vision of Beauty beyond compare. Softly tumbling tresses spun From shining strands of summer sun That quietly cascade in rivulets of gold To splash upon awaiting shoulders. Eyes that have never seen before One who shall see them forevermore, Twin sapphire stars set against A flawless sky of satin skin. There, slips the faintest ghost of a smile From lips of a shape most beguiling. One, a crimson cupid's bow Crowns the crescent one below. Flushed and full, they meet as if Pushed into a gentle kiss. The flowing curve of a glowing cheek Frames a portrait of Beauty so unique, The highest place She shall always hold Inside the gallery of my soul. Let Her be known to all those whom Look for Her in my nom de plume. |

Beautiful writing! Can't find Mona Lisa in your name so I'm not even going to try. Wait, got one guess... Laura? ·´~`·»Garapan«·´~`· |
