Mind the Painter

       Mind paints canvas of life as amateur
     Some hues taken from palette of events
     Some contributed by human nature
     oozing from emotive urge at moments.
     
     Heart gallery frames happy happenings
     Those turn weepy are mercilessly torn
     Ugly chapters showing spastic paintings
     Some to erase and some get forgotten.
                  
      Brush browses on multiple episodes,
      Patches of pigments collide in collage
      kaleidoscope of memory decodes
      Some pictures go hazy, some to enlarge.
     
     Throughout life did ‘Mind’ the painter paint well?
     Canvas of life with overlapped hues can't tell.
