A Speck on the Canvas

A Speck on the Canvas

Any artist would like to beseech

For a painting he would like to paint on a beach

Under the azure sky , turquoise sea on the background 

Among the picturesque surroundings

A dream painting near to his heart 

Filled with colours of his choice

A lifetime masterpiece to rejoice 

But his attitude of perfection proded him to detect on the canvas a tiny speck

And he held a magnifying glass to check

His painting cannot have any blemish he thought 

A little dab of paint his eye has caught

Can he also see a speck on the canvas of life?

He can only see it through his inner eyes.

-Manohar Luthra
