The Picture

She smiles as you walk away,
her smile is there or is it not.
She stares at you as you pass by,
Is she happy or sad, you know not.

This creation of a woman,
is it beautiful or just plain.
The lady in the picture,
is she happy or feeling pain.

Is she a lowly servant for a master,
or a creature soft and pure.
No one knows who she is,
only the artist knows for sure.

Inspired by the painting...."Mona Lisa"
