Stillness



“And, when the stream
Which overflowed the soul was passed away,
A consciousness remained that it had left,
Deposited upon the silent shore
Of memory, images and precious thoughts
That shall not die, and cannot be destroyed.”
~ Williams Wordsworth

Many things have been said about Mona Lisa -enigmatic, alluring and aloof ... mysterious ...
... can I even capture the slightest of these? A portrayal of beauty, perhaps even a whisper of sensuality in such stillness ...
