It can mean different things: sluggishness, lack of spirit, or tenderness. I like the contrast between the more negative meanings and the softer one. I like the way it sounds and how it feels to say it. When I hear it I imagine a woman in a light dress draped over a porch swing fanning herself on a hot day.
