Constance La France Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

Lost In Art

There are many things that make me happy in life,
but a day when I can go to the art gallery is the best;
I walk the many rooms totally lost and delighted with the art,
from room to room I view, Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque;
how, I love the religious paintings, the gothic, and the mythical painting.

I adore art for it is like a beautiful story painted,
then I rest, have a bit of lunch, and after I begin again;
oh, the 19th Century, 20th Century, and a visit to Impressionism,
a peek at Abstract and Modern Art, and all the sculptors along the way;
and the amazing Canadian artists, always so very interesting and so colorful.

I linger with the Aboriginal Art and the Inuit Art,
for this art touches my heart the most and I dwell with it;
I take another rest at a lovely, tranquil water court and garden,
and in the very heart of the gallery there is a reconstructed church;
oh, there is a whole story about how it got there, but I am blissful tired now.

Andrea Dietrich January 14, 2019 at 3:05 PM Dear Heart, here is another thing we have in common in addition to working out and loving cats and being alone. YOU LOVE MUSEUMS. I found when I was in my study group in Madrid, hardly anyone liked looking at paintings. It made me annoyed. I had to go fast through all the rooms due to the impatience of the 21 other students. I wish I had had more time in the Louvre. Fortunately I spent my study abroad right in Madrid and could visit Prado alone.it was a few blocks from my residencia! Love this. Constance La France January 15, 2019 at 11:45 PM Andrea, I love museums of all kinds but especially art, I would love to travel the world and visit all the art galleries, wouldn't that be divine, thanks for the comment ~

Sara Kendrick January 14, 2019 at 1:20 PM I enjoy art galleries also. I am not able to do much of that walking and standing anymore but it would be nice to go once again to see some of the most talented artist. I do go every year to the fair where they have amateur and professional art works on exhibit. Such awesome talents out there. Your entry reads like a good contender for he likes art. Sara Constance La France January 15, 2019 at 11:46 PM Sara, thanks for visiting, I admire all art in new artist, but true love is with the masters ~
