Love Poem: Mona Lisa Is Just a Painting

Mona Lisa Is Just a Painting

Hung there
In the Louvre
Is the most famous 
Of all smiles,
But it isn’t yours
And that is the one
That really 
Affects my heart

It is your smile
That no painter 
Can capture
No poet
Can accurately 
Compliment

It is within
Your smile
That tomorrow
Is an 
Endless possibility
With dreams true
Never-ending love
