PASSION.

Fay Slimm.

 

 

Passion. ( A Tribute)

 

Brushes which fuse earth and sun
in bold oily strokes.
Lines that move across landscape
like flames of smoke.
Palette fervent with passion tints 
scenic moments.
Framed an artistic heart's anguish
stays ever molten.
Signed by Van Gogh paint's heat
never goes cold.

                    Wonderful write about a wonderful painter who only sold one painting in his lifetime - it's different now.
