- Comment from author about the poem: A good friend of mine was born on July 27 and so was one of my sisters; only realised that tragedy struck on that same day in the 1890s, during my great grandfather's days.

This write holds a feel of mystery and a sense of foreboding. The ending lines give me the feel that beauty gilds with gold a darker underlying issue. Very nicely done it reads smooth and is haunting
Thanks Soren. It does give a sense of foreboding and haunting.
Van Gogh? A troubled soul.
Fido says to me: 'No 'ear ear' - 'hear, hear' - jokes, please!'
Yes Fido, too bad the ear was lopped off.
'be tender, be kind while you may'
a timeless, nugget
of humane wisdom!
brilliant! dear cherished Poet
Happy New Year
Happy New Year L.B.! Thanks kindly.
Such beautiful lines in honor of a beautiful and tortured soul. I love the last stanza which seems to epitomize what van Gogh loved to paint most. So lovingly written dear friend.
The sight and smell of wheat 🌾 and flax in a spray of sunlight is quite bewildering in its radiance and Vincent captured that so well.
beautifully worded as always
Thank you. Happy New Year!
