Sorry, leftie, I didn't see that you'd already mentioned "Vincent."

Here are a couple more:

"EYES OF A PAINTER" Kate Wolf

"SHE RISES LIKE THE DOLPHIN" Kate Wolf ("... sunlight casting shadows like a painter's palette knife ... ")

Then there's the popular ballad Steve Lawrence recorded,
"A PORTRAIT OF MY LOVE."
(David West and Cyril Orandel)

There could never be a portrait of my love,
For nobody could paint a dream.
You will never see a portrait of my love,
For miracles are never seen.

Anyone who sees her,
soon forgets the Mona Lisa.

It would take, I know, a Michelangelo,
And he would need the glow of dawn that paints the sky above
To try and paint a portrait of my love.

"A GIFT TO TAKE" © 2004 Doug Barnett

The soul of a poet that speaks to my own
Far reaching visions away from my home,
It sees into feelings of sorrow or love,
Sweet tears caressing the cheek of a dove.
The soul of a poet is the choice I would make
If given the chance of a gift I could take.

The eyes of a painter see life as a scene,
Palette and brushes creation dream.
The world is a wonder of colors and hues,
A soft curving chin or a wild ocean view.
The eyes of a painter is the choice I would make
If given the chance of a gift I could take.

The hand of a writer the story of life
Begin and ending in glory or strife.
Tales of far lands or people unseen
Bring to life of things that never been.
The hand of a writer is the choice I would make
If given the chance of a gift I could take.

The voice of an angel singing God's praise,
Looking to heaven the hearts it would raise,
So sweet and clear songs rising above
Bring joy to the soul and fill it with love.
The voice of an angel is the choice I would make
If given the chance of a gift I could take.

All of these things have been given I see
By all the people who lived here before me,
The poets and painters that speak to my heart,
The writers and angels who gave me a start,
The gift I was given the life I will live -
The choice is now mine of the gift I will give.
