Unknown Painters & Paintings! Poem by nimal dunuhinga

Unknown Painters & Paintings!



Tiny kettle whistles in the kitchenette
and the rusty alarm clock cries
on the bedside table.
She must have woke up early
with a bad dream?
and prepares the morning cup of tea!
I too woke up lazily and wiped the frosty window
with my criss-cross palm?
O the faraway gloomy sky's covered
with heavy winter clouds!
Invisible Master! Have you done
this Masterpiece?
The entire life I tried but in vain
and my painting named 'Depression'
Not finished yet for the Exhibition?

['Nearly everyman who develops an idea, works at it up to the point where it looks impossible and then gets discouraged.That's not the place to become discouraged.']-Thomas Alva Edison

to my poet friend Nightmute in gratitude!

Keep on painting, Nimal. A painting or a poem is only finished when the artist herself/himself is able to find out that she or he cannot add anymore. Continue finding idea and continue working on it until you think the final expression has been painted... Take care.
