Premium Member Undergrowth with Two Figures - Van Gogh
Her face tilted up, so serene. Marvelling at the vastness of the blue sky As she walks arm in arm With her fiancé, Glowing inside, Basking in the aura of love. Their union, as strong As the tall trees surrounding them. The fragility of life— Two souls walking as one As they tiptoe through the dense maze of flowers, The sea of yellow opens up at...

Premium Member Pondering Van Gogh
The starry night is out of focus under the thick tree cover where the two connected souls walk arm in arm among the heavy grass and flower coverage that crowds the earth under the trees the fragrance of the wildflowers is heavy in the air and wafts upward to be breathed in by the couple sharing a moment secluded in the beauty of nature allowing...

Undergrowth with Two Figures - Van Gogh
In the cold woods where shadows display, Two figures wander in the verdant sway. Beneath the canopy of emerald light, They tread softly, hidden from everyones sight. Leaves murmur secrets of times gone by, As golden beams filter through the sky. Their steps are hushed, their hearts beat slow, In the undergrowth where wildflowers grow. In Van Gogh's world of colour oh i...
