Art is in those eyes which sees it...

My Art

 

My Art is no art

Without my mind's simplicity.

 

 

My Art does not want

To subscribe to the view

That unhappiness

Commands the world.

 

 

When I paint or draw,

I keep my mind's thought-garden

Completely free of self-doubt-weeds.

 

 

My Art is the hide-and-seek

Between my soul's illumining smiles

And my heart's streaming tears.

 

 

 

The Artist in me has three

Faithful, sleepless

And self-giving friends:

A newness-eye, a oneness-heart

And a fulness-life.

 

 

 

The heart of my Art

And the heart of a child

Are extremely fond of each other.

They love each other deeply;

They need each other constantly;

They are interdependent, sleeplessly.

 

 

 

My mind says that anything I do

Is too insignificant

Because I am wanting

In qualification.

Needless to say,

This includes my Artwork.

 

 

My heart says that anything I do

Is too significant

Because the God-Touch

Is always there.

Needless to say,

This includes my Artwork.

 

 

The moment I start painting,

I clearly see my soul-meditation

Is blessingfully clasping

My heart-aspiration-flames.

 

 

 

First things first:

The Artist in me,

Before embarking on his Artwork,

Invariably catches

His heart's aspiration-express.

 

 

 

True, in my Art I want to see

The face of earth's beauty.

But I want to see

The heart of Heaven's Divinity

More, infinitely more.
