Hard to imagine
a year has been
a year has gone
lying by the window
feeling the wet air
flying over my skin
life coming towards me
I extend my arm
from under the warmth

Thank you, Steve, your perspective is always interesting to hear. Dreams really are like a separate person of life. Last winter I study a little with a dream analyzer.

I still use my dream dictionary to help me with my paintings though.
