Van Gogh Poems - Poems about Van Gogh

Painter duo

Two painters
Two generations
Two minds
But one goal – to observe and to paint

Vincent’s Arles
20th February 1888
He left as snow fell in Paris
Seeking warmth, bright light and colour
Provence beckoned, Arles awaited

Cold welcome soon turned warm
Vincent keen to explore
Keen to advance painting style
Bold colours, dynamic brush strokes

May day and the yellow house his base
Hopes of a collective studio
Daring

Van Gogh

The moon speaks in phases
the sun a voice of lasers
every cloud a picture story -- 
write me a day, and I’ll paint
you a Starry Night.

A Painting by Van Gogh

I happen to take Art classes in oils. My teacher directed me to Van Gogh's Flores: 

I am not sure what it's called. But I am very impressed with it's colors of yellow, maze and the swirls of a blue vase. It appears that the painting is all swirls. I can't imagine how it was

Twelve Sunflowers in a Vase

 twelve of us he choose to paint
    sons of Jacob in an earthen 
jar so sturdy
plonked us with vehemence
directed by neuronal cells 
skull protecting scrambled 
delicacy
              managed by eyes
emitting fire spark piercings
fingers reading poverty
boats

Pine Trees against a Red Sky with Setting Sun, 1889 by Vincent van Gogh

heart ~ a wild collage
of gold-smeared skies
pressed within 
       oil-washed layers
of breathing
                melancholy
as leaves curled in
cashmere greens
         trace 
condensed contours

van Gogh bio rhyme

 
famous after death dutch painter van Gogh
vincent more often than not to nature did go
painted with cheap paints and shadows random
lived in poverty, painted as if chased by a phantom
cut off his ear, mentally ill, his art utterly ignored till
his death, now world famous for his great artistic skill

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

Poetic Appreciation of Undergrowth with Two Figures - Van Gogh

Vibrant and radiant life abounds 
as lovers, sealed around devotion
thrive midst nature's care...
mindful of paradise
blest, blooming, blissful
entrusted to their stewardship
for functional optimization
they both are committed to fulfill
since trees and vegetation witnessed...
the Creator exhorted them to
"Go and multiply."*

*Genesis 1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth,

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

Undergrowth With Two Figures - Van Gogh

In luxuriant terrane of verdant sprouts
opulent golden understory unveiled,
stemmed by swerving jade blades,
entwining the pairs of legs petrified
within the maze of floral profusion.
The black figure of deviant prominence
stands out like a towering protector
in sutured closeness fused with her,
camouflaged to evade the predator.
Bare trees aligned in harmonized motif,
outline the floral boulevard for them
to walk away from

Undergrowth With Two Figures - Van Gogh

A couple stands side by side in a woods
among the tall slender trunks of many trees
lifting high to the sky, 
the unseen crowns of which
I can only imagine.

The man and woman’s feet 
are planted on ground
wildly overrun by white and yellow flowers
which seemingly have bloomed 
free as a breeze.

Dressed in black,  
the man resembles

Undergrowth with Two Figures, Van Gogh

brushed by the blushing Fontainebleau,
   blooming with rainless foliage,
like a poem kissed by the green…
I sigh as thoughts wander
   in saffron silence,
   in the echoing warmth
of your breathing silhouette...

we are beyond wraiths of wildflowers,
   waltzing through the wilderness,
   sipping honeyed drops of sunlight,
whilst specks of
