MAGPIE/ Prompt #59

                                       
                                        illustration/ tess kincaid/ Magpie Tales #59


Will there ever be a final word for the Mona Lisa puzzle?  I think so...Mag has teased my mind once more..thanks, Tess Kincaid!!


2 Haikus

MONA:

Leonardo, dear,
I've got a toothache today,
so please hurry up.


LEONARDO:

Mona, my dear one,
do wipe that frown off your face.
Big smile please, say cheese!

    Toothache or maybe a baby's abdominal pain?--about the same expression, no doubt. ;-) Nice job, Lynn.

    Another theory is that she was suffering from Bell's Palsy, a condition which paralyses one of the facial nerves. Quite a lot of hits on Google for "Mone Lisa, Bell's Palsy"
    The bubble gum's a splendid edit!

    Theories will go on forever! Wish I could take credit for the bubblegum..I found it..thanks!!
