As sentient beings, we have the gift to sensorially stay aware. How rewarding for those who do.

Such Recent Bouts...

How seductive the quiet
The pause to reflect
The prelude of volcanoes
Such is the mercy of Sylvain Chauveau
Eclectic composer of punk
Classic
Meditation
Electronic
Ex pat of France
Now of Belgium identity

To sit with his sound
Is to immerse in refracted crystalline
Surreal water's insistence to rush
To flow
To trickle
And to come to rest
Daring us to skip a rock
To draw our fingers through peace and tranquility
Rather than allow It to happen

Such is the echo of silent symphonies
The tactile whisper of the muse
There for the taking

The IT

Simple thirds
Dissonant sevenths
Connecting wings with surf
Merging dragon's breath
With that of angels
Such is the genius
Of allowing the One to Be

We all possess it

This ability to perceive
To unite
To be of a single connection

Few exercise the obvious
For fear of such recent bouts...

I have never heard of his music, but from your writing, I take it that the music is a tour de force for relaxing. Ron

The ones that do refuse are simply comfortable with what they know.....not to worry the universe will give them the kick :-) Good write.
