Read MoreA Dream I Had While Asleep, January 20th 2026 The air in my grandparents’ house tasted of woodsmoke and old memories, a stillness that usually feels like an ending. But then she was there. Marsha. Not as a memory, but...

Deep gratitude my friend. This story, based on a dream about my late former wife, was the most emotional dream I have ever had about here. Very glad you enjoyed this, my friend. That means so much to me. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much Fia. Glad you enjoyed this. This vignette was based entirely on a dream I had a couple of nights ago. Much appreciated.

Dreams always have some kind of meaning behind them. Trying to figure that meaning out is the hard part. Perhaps the lost dress was a representation of words that were never spoken. Or desires never totally met. The ending is warm and affectionate. As a poet or writer, dreams can be of value, which in this case, was beneficial for a good story with a happy ending. 🙂

Tim I love your insights here. Indeed you illuminate he hidden nature of meaning in dreams. Indeed, I do think the lost dress held a meaning. As did the atm machine. I could imagine the atm machine meaning that the love we had was never really about money but that she was looking for something more than what money can buy from me. Thank you so much for sharing your insightful thoughts here. They were greatly appreciated.

Wolves are back! Big bad and naughty wolves. The Wolves you are writing about seem to be more seductive and haunting than threatening.
I’m curious to read your take on this topic. -

I am slogging at the library right now reading through the first draft making revisions. About to transcribe it from my notebook to the computer so I can send it to you finally. Ughhhhhh writing is such a process, Elke! Haha 😂

Damian was the one that stood out right away. Interesting, I don’t think I’ve seen a puzzle as a poem before.
Nice work.-

Thank you. I just wanted to have some fun with finding the writers in a puzzle.

Read MoreIntimacy left the bedroom, drifted quietly down the street. Wanting only human closeness, with no intent to cheat. It wandered past the neighbours, took a shortcut through the park. Noticed couples leaning inwards, who had not lost their spark. It walked backed twenty paces, sat beside a nameless...

Thanks Damian…..watch out for those Gnomes.

I love the idea of this, the imagery. The whole gnome part almost, but not quite, adds a whimsy to it. Yet the despair overcomes that brief slide towards “not so bad”. The ending is perfect. The whole write is great stuff.
