I've have long admired the artwork of Vincent Van Gogh. Biographical accounts of his life reflect a man with many conflicts - his family, religion, relationships, and his struggle to be accepted in the art world. This song is touching rememberance -

Vincent (Starry Starry Night) - Don McLean

"This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you . . ."

May your soul rest in peace, dear Vincent.

This one makes me nostalgic and sad. Love the lyrics. Coming at ya from 1984, Don Henley

The Boys of Summer

https://vimeo.com/214448651

I never will forget those nights.
I wonder if it was a dream.
Remember how you made me crazy,
Remember how I made you scream?

I can see you,
Your brown skin shining in the sun.
I see you walking real slow
And you're smiling at everyone.

I can see you,
Your brown skin shining in the sun.
You got your hair slicked back
And those Wayfarers on, baby.
And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong,
After the boys of summer have gone.

Love, Me- Collin Raye. (I put in BOLD what always makes me cry

I read a note my grandma wrote back in 1923
Grandpa kept it in his coat, and he showed it once to me
He said, "Boy, you might not understand
But a long, long time ago
Grandma's daddy didn't like me none
But I loved your grandma so"

We had this crazy plan to meet and run away together
Get married in the first town we came to, and live forever
But nailed to the tree where we were supposed to meet instead
I found this letter, and this is what it said

If you get there before I do, don't give up on me
I'll meet you when my chores are through
I don't know how long I'll be
But I'm not gonna let you down, darling wait and see
And between now and then, 'til I see you again
I'll be loving you
Love, me

I read those words just hours before
My grandma passed away
In the…

I read those words just hours before
My grandma passed away
In the doorway of a church
Where me and grandpa stopped to pray
I know I'd never seen him cry in all my fifteen years
But as he said these words to her
His eyes filled up with tears

If you get there before I do, don't give up on me
I'll meet you when my chores are through
I don't know how long I'll be
But I'm not gonna let you down, darling wait and see
And between now and then, 'til I see you again
I'll be loving you
Love, me
Between now and then, 'til I see you again
I'll be loving you
Love, me
