Notes About The Poem

Dolce Far Niente

Sunshine glistens through the oaks and pines, trees Revealing the wonders of God’s sweet light Hearts reminded of those who’re so at ease Washing away the cares who’re just not right Since we’re yearning for the joy in leisure Revealing the wonders of God’s sweet light Relaxing brings us our greatest pleasure Twisting dreams so we are clearly inspired Since we’re yearning for the joy in leisure Unsure what it feels like to be retired Set for the sweetness of doing nothing Twisting dreams so we are clearly inspired Comforted by the repose of this thing Where the heart rains hopeful inspirations Set for the sweetness of doing nothing Heartened to feel the sing-song sensations Sunshine glistens through the oaks and pines, trees Where the heart rains hopeful inspirations Hearts reminded of those who’re so at ease

Unsure what it feels like to be retired Set for the sweetness of doing nothing…let me tell you (lol) still busy but I have some control over my time! God bless! Congratulations!
