Beholder, the Painter
Lure of mirage
thirst unquenched
hidden despair unperceived.
Wisdom unveils crafty illusion
in life of reality
awareness imbibed.
Shadow of dark clouds
mind masked in shade
concealed hope undiscerned.
Silver lining in foresight view
splits in colors of reverie
in prism of optimist vision.
Convoluted canvas
deformed unsightly faces
turn murals of beauty
sparkling in conceived smile
beholder, the painter.
