Awww what a fine tribute to a lovely girl. However the smile she has currently in her avatar is a bit more bubbly than Mona Lisa. This was cute.

Mona Lisa's smile is more serious....Olive's smile radiates, on whichever avatar she uploads! Yes, she is lovely and much more. // paul

If I was a painter, I'd rather paint Olive Eloisa than the Mona Lisa any day. Nice Limerick Paul, James :)

Dear Paul, for ages people have wondered what Mona Lisa was thinking when she had the strange smirk. I guess da Vinci had to use the stand in for other parts of the painting if she had a "flashy smile." Very witty, my friend! Place give Olive Eloisa my condolences. LOL Love, Carolyn

Hi Carolyn! I think Mona Lisa had just been reading Limericks on Soup, while trying to keep her composure!! Hope Olive pops in to pass her own remarks :) This is my last comment for tonight before turning in:) hugs // paul
