Dream a Little Dream

Dream a Little Dream

A Chapter by M Garcia

About my grandfather who passed away 11-4-04

"

Last night

I dreamed a little dream

A dream about you

You were at our beach house

It was snowing outside

The yard flooded, but accessible

 

The yard covered in real flamingos

Ducks, geed

The flamingos making the others stay

Weird that

Since we never had any of those around

 

As we sit outside, in the snow

You in your favorite recliner

Me on a medicine ball

We hold hands and watch the scene

Unfold

 

I see a dog come out of the house

Smiling I look to you

Can we keep her?

I ask

You nod and head inside

 

As I play with the puppy

I hear granny say

You need to stop giving those girls everything they want

I roll my eyes and ask the puppy

Who's your Mommy?

She remembers and licks my face

 

Heading inside, I go to the bathroom

A few minutes pass, I'm nearly done

You walk in

You don't knock, as usual

Almost done

I say

You nod

I wake up

 

Nearly in tears

As the dream rushes back

 

Nearly in tears

As I remember you're not here

 

Nearly in tears

As this poem flows

Oh wow! What an interesting dream.
I love how you were sitting on the medicine ball in
your dream. I'm almost positive this was
an actual visit from your Grandpa
while you were dreaming.
It's a nice dream.

dreams can telescope memories and add fantasies which allow the tears to flow when necessary
