Pete

I walk

Out of 

My grass

Hut.

My bare 

Feet

In 

The 

Warm

Sand.

I walk

Through

The jungle.

The heat

Is making 

My cotton

White dress

Stick

To my skin.

I used 

To 

Come here

In my dreams.

I am here 

Again.

My skin 

Has been

Kissed by

The sun.

My hair 

Is dirty 

And pinned

Back.

There is 

A sweet 

Breeze 

Blowing 

Gently.

I can feel 

It tickle 

My neck.

My ears.

I walk to 

A clearing and 

I see you.

You are a big

Elephant.

Maybe this 

My real life

A past life?

You let 

Me walk up 

To 

You.

You are 

A big powerful 

Creature.

Hello,

I whisper,

You take 

Your trunk 

And touch

My face

My arm

My body.

May I?

I ask.

You gently 

Scoop 

Me up and I

Crawl 

On your back.

I am riding 

On 

Your grand 

Elephant 

Back.

Your skin 

Is so 

Tough,

It has to be

To survive.

I know the spot.

I gently 

Kiss the 

Top

Of your head.

You are 

Smiling.

Your elephant

Smile.

I feel the hot sun 

On my 

Head.

I feel

Close 

To 

God.

Who 

Else could 

Make this 

Happen.

You help 

Me off your 

Back.

I hold your 

Strong 

Leg.

You 

Take your 

Trunk 

And touch me.

I feel

Your love

History 

And future.

The sun

 Is setting.

I love you 

Pete.

I say outloud.

You make a 

Sound 

And start 

To 

Stroll 

Away.

The dream

Ends 

The same way 

Everytime.

I don't know 

What it 

Means.

I just know 

It warms me,

It 

Fills up 

A empty 

Place.
