The dazed hum

The dazed hum

A Poem by Jennifer
"

A lovely warm together feeling

"
There's a dazed hum
That kind of sets in
But only ever in the midst of two things
Which must both be present.
One being togetherness and
The other being complete and utter relaxation.

The dazed hum is welcome
But not necessarily invited
Infact probably never preconceived or contrived
As part of it's very being.

It usually involves a little bit of talk
Which is not to say conversation
More so, the impromptu utterances
and responses of those
who feel at once at ease with themselves
And with their surroundings

Enough so that
With little or no thought
Will say whatever it is that comes to mind
Be it a comment on something around them,
On the tv or a memory
Which has drifted lazily into their mind
Like a little cloud
Announced to the room
With little or no expectation or reply.

The dazed hum won't take place in just any company
Or any location.
Both company and location must harmonise
The welcome guests
Must meld together dreamily as if they belong
An interdependent relationship
Which creates the vital ingredients
In which the dazed hum can exist.

The dazed hum is experienced
by the family and the living room
But not all families
and not all living rooms.
It's experienced by the lovers and the bedroom,
The friends and the tv room,
The sisters and the playroom
The brothers and the gamers room,
The travellers and the parlour room
And the neighbours and the sitting room.

The dazed hum arrives on a full stomach,
After a good days work or travel
It surrounds the body in warmth and contentment,
It connects the body firmly to the soul
And let's those dwell together: for a time at least.

It is in the air of the dazed hum
Thst simplicity, safety, quiet stillness, warmth, security
peace, listening and love are all carried.

It follows babies, children, the old and the at peace
Where they go
And settles around them in the while before sleep,
Often leaking over onto the rest of us.
Thank fully.

I hope you find the harmony
to allow the dazed hum settle around you
Enough for you to appreciate its presence
And not so much that you might take it for granted.
