A star child

Vincent (Starry Starry Night)

“Don McLean wrote Vincent in 1971 after reading a book about the life of artist Vincent Van Gogh. In the 1970s, the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam played the song daily and a copy of the sheet music, together with a set of Van Gogh’s paint brushes, is buried in a time capsule beneath the museum.”

This song, the words, Vincent Van Gogh, along with his paintings describe to me a Star Child born in a time that may not have understood.
