Masterpiece

A young artist learning how to paint
With hopes of becoming someone great
Lessons every day always taught the same
Simple task no questions asked just paint away

The paintings that are made talent he does show
But one thing he would like to know
Pictures that he draws something still seems bare
Can't explain don't know why what's missing here

The beauty of a masterpiece
Not the paint or brush but the thought that's underneath
Let's paint our lives with machshavos
To bring us close to Hashem and His mitzvos

One day a book of pictures he receives
Famous artist and what they've achieved
One painting stands out catches his eye
To paint like that is the goal I will try

Art show arriving to his town
With his favorite artist as the star
Walking through displays a face he does see
Runs to him this is the man he must meet

The beauty of a masterpiece
Not the paint or brush but the thought that's underneath
Let's paint our lives with machshavos
To bring us close to Hashem and His mitzvos

Tell me one thing the young boy does request
What's the secret to your success
The artist replies what should be on your mind
To paint with heart is all you need for you to shine

Each of us is that boy the motions that we do
Thoughts behind our acts make us anew
Take the extra step machshava's all that's left
V'taher Li'beinu B'emes

The beauty of a masterpiece
Not the paint or brush but the thought that's underneath
Let's paint our lives with machshavos
To bring us close to Hashem and His mitzvos
