And on a blue black night, with spirals yellow, white His warmth on cool entwines me He reminds me Flowers grow, love rain or snow Segments of line we live Impressions of beauty or sadness Little bits we give. Spiraling whites on starry nights With life on soil hardened; When drought was caked with stumbling doubt, washed tears he watered garden Then rose and sang his paint to me Look what life’s about! Flowers grow, love rain or snow Segments of line we live Impressions of beauty or sadness Little bits we give. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ (Lyrics and music dedicated to my husband for all of his patience, love, and inspiration. I can think of no better way to share with him my feelings than through the paint of the master, Vincent Van Gogh. Although he found turbulence in his life, he also, saw beauty. Cheers to the beauty.) ~~misc'e [This message has been edited by miscellanea (03-24-2006 04:14 PM).] |

Miscee "He arose and sang his paint to me Look what life’s about!" I'm sure he loved this song you painted to him, for the same reason. I know I did!  |

"He painted for me sunflowers in hardened garden When his doubt was caked with others drought" That picture really struck me. It so many ways, that's what I try to do, painting sunflowers in spite of my doubt. “We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best that we can find in our travels is an honest friend.” –Robert Louis Stevenson |
