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

Wicked verbal choice
And a very worthy tribute to Vincent and his beautiful painting it is Fay. ; )
A real tribute to Van Gough (pronounced Goff !! ) super work for such a great artist.
A beautiful tribute beautifully framed, Fay ... most pleasantly and concisely structured!
Beautiful tribute to a wonderful artist.
A fine tribute Fay. Do many 'geniuses' have turbulent and troubled spells in their life? Or are some just drama queens?! lol. I saw a subtitled programme of 'Van Cough', as they put it. doh!
Van Gough is one of my favorites. I love the colors and the strokes. Most beautiful as is your poem Fay. Lovely tribute.
Great write
Great tribute to a fine impressionist. Great write!
Fay, I think Sotheby should hire you to write the descriptions next time they have a Fine Art Auction. How could somebody NOT buy a painting with such a beautiful interpretation.
