When writing about nature and beauty Vincent often stressed the tension between ecstatic epiphany and inescapable impermanence. Nearly everything she wrote dealt with the transience of bliss and the disappearance of rapture.
Gaily defiant, and rarely tempted to “dicker with dying,” Vincent never succumbed to the sentimentality of “tragic acceptance.”
Down, down, down, into the darkness of the grave
Gently they go, the beautiful, the tender, the kind;
Quietly they go, the intelligent, the witty, the brave.
I know. But I do not approve. And I am not resigned.
