Dolce Far Niente

'dolce far niente', is an Italian idiom means 'sweetness of doing nothing It's humdrum of work twenty four seven thrumming a suffocated heart to burnout too many tabs open in frantic switching moments of leisure in despair and doubt. Can't I pause a while to look around nature? a peacock dancing to tunes of a cuckoo, when worries vanish in a world of euphoria lying on a hammock, there's nothing to do. A simple miracle, the two little sparrows, captivated I ask, what are your names? they flit around, twitching with a squirrel finding hidden nuts, adventure fun games. Mr Time is no warden...dolce far niente in shade of siesta, there's no feeling of guilt no gems sparkle, only with uncut diamonds, precious spare moments, a Heaven is built
