Lost In Art- My Happiness
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 galleries, totally lost and delighted with the art,
From room to room, Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque, 18th Century;
The bright religious paintings of the Gothic era, the mythical painting of Renaissance.
I could dwell there forever, for art is life, a story painted,
And then I rest, perhaps a bit of lunch, then I begin again;
19th Century, 20th Century, and a quick visit to Impressionism,
A peek at Abstract (not my favorite) nor is Modern Art, but I view;
And in my gallery, because I am in Canada, there is the Canadian art, amazing.
And then the Aboriginal Art and the Inuit Art of Canada,
That is always very moving and beautiful to linger over;
Then after yet another rest, I go to the Water Court and Garden,
In the very heart of the gallery there is a reconstructed church;
Well as you can tell, a day at the art gallery for me is blissful with happiness.
For me art is part of life, painted of life, it tells a story of life,
and it brings me utter happiness that lingers for days and days.
