Vincent Sees Vincent sees the dripping night within velvet layers of candle light his impression of the stars alone could be a color from a brush unknown he himself could be a canvas bare waiting for a touch to take him there shadows flicker flame’s dance unfelt yet, his heart is a tinted waxen melt will grace alter the surface in adorn to be created in a deeper painting worn candles and stars become the muse as white sweeps across bold new hues |

"Vincent sees the dripping night within velvet layers of candle light" and "candles and stars become the muse as white sweeps across bold new hues" Love those lines Helen. You paint the artist masterfully. Very much enjoyed...  |

Helen~ This was beautiful. I love every line and every rhyme.  "cast me gently into the morning, for the night has been unkind" |

Anyone can see the beauty of Van Gogh, but it takes the sensitivity of an artist to feel his wonder--just as you have described. Miss you lady. Your words enabled me to see his artistry yet again.  |
