"Intermission: Ad Infinitum Lux Vitae"
Intermission I wait You call I have loved I wait Lux Vitae I have loved Through the Storm Lux Vitae I have loved, to love You more Through the Storm You call, Open Door I have loved, to love You more Ad Infinitum You call, Open Door I walk with You through the Storm Ad Infinitum My Love is always Yours You walk with me through the Storm The Waiting Room calls
Intermission
(Lovejoy-Burton/April 2018) for "my" Georgia, who is entirely her own person
The inspiration for my poem - This "Pantoum" is about Birth, Life, Death. There are all sorts of "Waiting Rooms", in this Life and the next. Of course, this is my belief. The reader may interpret Birth, Life and Death distinctly separate from my belief. Georgia, the 'True' inspiration for your name, below. x
"I decided to start anew, to strip away what I had been taught.” - Georgia O'Keeffe "I had to create an equivalent for what I felt about what I was looking at - not copy it. ” - Georgia O'Keeffe "I said to myself, I have things in my head that are not like what anyone has taught me - shapes and ideas so near to me - so natural to my way of being and thinking that it hasn't occurred to me to put them down. ” - Georgia O'Keeffe" "Marks on paper are free - free speech - press - pictures all go together I suppose. ” - Georgia O'Keeffe "To create one's world in any of the arts takes courage. ” - Georgia O'Keeffe "Anyone who doesn't feel the crosses simply doesn't get that country.” - Georgia O'Keeffe

If you are going to 'write' policy, fabrication is not advisable, make sure you have ALL the true facts in front of you and that TRUTH is delivered by whatever means necessary".
