This poem has now entered the list of Best Poems of Members. Congratulations Geeta
Geeta is quite adept a story teller. The van Gogh story moves on… good piece…. Set backs, failures all marred his life…
The poetess is a genius in English as she has magnificently narrated the incident!
Vincent Van Gogh was casting pearls before swines! His fate? God is to blame?
Enjoying the write up. Loved your style of story telling. Thanks.
