about

The first line says it all:

Rest in the beauty of being idle

Sometimes the most cherished experience in the world is the ability to do nothing and just soak in the beauty of being alive.

Like a guest you sit contented
View the spectacle casually
How fortunate is our vision

Maximizing the moment often takes little more than ones attention and appreciation.

Every sound each vibration
Soothes like heart's constant beat
Dancing so sweet in life's rhythm

A baby denied skin on skin contact seldom survives. Touch does more than heal it unfolds and connects.

Our bodies await celebration
Beckon touch wistfully
Cradled in the arms of a lover

There are reasons why we are called human beings and not human doers.

Each breath fills your body
Gives you a taste of nature’s bounty, nourishing you

When possible, take a moment, take many moments and enjoy the flow of sweet repose.

lyrics

Sweet Repose 8/8/09

Rest in the beauty of being idle
Listen to songbirds
Feel the breeze
Nestle in the delight of the season

Like a guest you sit contented
View the spectacle casually
How fortunate is our vision

So calm so serene
the soft whispers of the trees

Our bodies await celebration
Beckon touch wistfully
Cradled in the arms of a lover

Every sound each vibration
Soothes like heart's constant beat
Dancing so sweet in life's rhythm

Memories let you dream
So real so pristine

On your back you embrace the day
Warming sun and cooling shade tickle you, in passing moods
So relaxed so at ease
These vivid moments bring you peace and glue to what you do

Each breath fills your body
Gives you a taste of nature’s bounty, nourishing you
So calm so at rest
Grounded by the aroma of herbal scents you glow
In sweet repose enjoy the flow of sweet repose
