The Smile.

Perugia. Perugia! How could you have
the heart
To give the world SO fierce a thrill con-
corning works Of art?
How could you gather up picture, like
a piece of junk,
And stick it in your overcoat and hide
it in your trunk?
And yet your explanation has a most con-
vincing style
When you say you were bewildcred by
the Mona Lisa Smile.
We know that smile whose mystic light
with subtle meaning glows,
A smile of strange Significance in its com
plete repose.
We knew it out at Oyster Bay in summer
days of yore;
We saw it in Chicago. and likewise al
Baltimore;
It's common up in Congress, when q
session first begins
That Mona Lisa Smile which such strange
admiration wins.
Perugia: Perugia. We sympathize with
you.
That sort of smile has mystified some oil
our people, too,
Whenever any question agitates this
mighty land,
You see that strange expression Ger a
statesman's face expand.
1t may mean love or hate: it may mean
righteousness or guile
There isn't any limit to the Mona Lisa
Smile.
