The draw of the Sea

The sea laps the shore,
whilst the sand receeds into
its cold blue temptress.

Oystercatchers sqwark,
their long beaks beaconing
the summer solstice.

Upon the clifftops,
weathered walkers feel the breeze,
adrift by sundown.

What a relaxing moment

How elegant of the rain
Of its smells and transparency 
Of its  sounds rhymed spring 

Even the wind conspires 
Of absence to urge
Nor others for disturbance 

The trees stand over there quietly 
And the people are driving slowly 
Or walking carefully

Even birds are somewhere hiding 
To offer the moment to the rain 
Sounds as a

The Sound of Rain

The sound of rain
Acts as a balm to my overtaxed brain
Is a sweet lullaby 
Relaxes my bewildered mind
The soothing downpour
Washes all my worries away
Induces me to be in the arms of Morpheus
In a peaceful repose.

Premium MemberTotally Relaxing

my grandson Scott was almost too casual
sitting in the lake
his trusty golden retriever sat right next to him
caught any fish? I asked
I am not trying, he replied
Just relaxing
I got a lawn chair and joined him
not too proud to get my clothes wet
He was right; it was totally relaxing

A countryside walk

I love a countryside walk.
When I'm having a bad day,
I go for a walk,
When I haven't got much to say.
What a big difference it makes,
A long, gentle stroll, 
It's great to be outdoors, 
And really is good for the soul! 
Such beautiful views of green, 
A calming feeling passes over me. 
Birds flying around so

Premium MemberMeadow

I walked into a meadow
Such beauty did I see
Turns out it's been here
All this time
Revealed so gently

I walked into a meadow
Tamed in part
Yet mostly wild
I skipped among the flowers
Felt the freedom of a child

I walked into a meadow
Shared the warmth
Of her caress
The sunlight of her radiance
A view designed to bless

I walked into that meadow
Without purpose
Soon

A Love Letter

Oh sweet nothing, I really miss you
Just putting one foot on the table, or two
If I could just sink in to this sofa and stew
Oh sweet nothing, I do so miss you

What if you could see me now?
Running in circles like a professional greyhound
You’d not know me, life’s so loud
Oh sweet nothing, if you could

Premium MemberDolce 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

Relaxing

A gentle wave calms thy heart,
Windchimes swirling in the gentle breeze.
Restore thou art,
The road ahead whispers a gentle breeze.
Calming sadness, strength begins.
Power of joy and hope
Happiness wins.
I am finding the power to cope.
Beating battles of unkind,
Finding friends along the way,
Learning how to unwind,
Looking forward to a brand new day.

Relaxing Day

Good morning  happy Saturday 
A time to rest  a time to play
Jam to tunes, binge some shows
Let the good times start to flow

Eat some yummies, have a drink
Turn off your mind, don't even think
Take a nap, get some rest
Message a friend who's the best

Take a walk in the spring air
Enjoy the nature everywhere
No

Premium MemberRelaxing Into Wisdom of the Sea

if there was ever a perfect day, this was that day
I plunged into the Caribbean Sea, now a mermaid
She greeted me with the cool hug of an old friend
Her waters were as clear as glass, I was home!

There were no sounds on the beach today.
I was the only one here, feeling God’s presence
As I swam,

Relaxing At Home

When I strut through the door-

It is time to celebrate the end of another day!

Feeling victorious for a moment. 

Spending the evening telling myself that I am happy. 

But I say it more thoughtlessly each time. 

Feeling satisfied is the appropriate response to the end of the day. 

It was a really hard day. 

The

Premium MemberCaught Up In the Moment

lolling on a hill
in glossy days of summer
cherishing blue skies

fat bumblebees hum
tunes of sweetness and sunlight
purple rose delight

gurgling brook's laughing
then the fall, and mum's the word
chrysanthemum craze

calico cat frisks
in the mystery of hours
colored by beauty
