Picassogram

The village thought her

Such a sight!

Needle thin

And lacking height 

 

Her face was wrong

Not right at all!

With one eye big

And one eye small

 

Her nose was bent

Her ears misplaced

She was what you call

An acquired taste!

 

But, an artist came

Called Picasso they say

And painted her

In such a way

 

Her inner colours

Shone bright & free

And, so she became 

A celebrity!

"paint what I see"!

Did he?

A gem of a poem, Stephen. Artistic licence, eh?
