Outside the bathroom window, the wind chime whispers music. Its deep solemn smooth pitch, relaxes the morning. The birds also sing in harmony. Trees wave their leaves blending their voices to support the chimes lead.
As I get up in the mornings my night’s rest infuses with the music played by nature: a repeated dream converted into wonderful music.
It’s dark. I saw a three story house in the middle of the street. Walking through the door I went upstairs to the second floor. On the floor a strawberry cake fresh from the oven. I could tell because of the smell. After that ever thing went blank.
All of sudden I’d seen a friend of mine on the third floor. We both walked down the hallway through another door. Turning around we seen an old man and other people celebrating his birthday.
Afterwards I ended up in the backyard. It was dusk, I could tell that time moved backwards from night to late evening. A man had his hand stuck in the fence between the links with a nail like gutter spike in his hand. Walking over to help him I looked into his eyes. My intuition told me to remove the nail from his hand to set him free, but if I did the consequences could pose a potential threat that’s unknown to my senses.
Remind you the man was frail. He looks like Pinhead off the Hellraiser movie without the pins.
I removed the nail from his hand. He disappeared. Chaos was filled the air. I decided to leave.
Walking down to the end of the street into the main intersection, people were walking in one direction. You could tell they were being controlled by something otherworldly. A car approached me as if it was turning in my direction. The woman had a dazed stiff look on her face. She put the car in reverse and drove the opposite direction.
As she drove off I heard her say, “nail everything you see and hear.”
When I woke up I couldn’t remember the dream. But as I washed my face getting ready for the day the wind chimes started to sing remembrance to what I had dreamed, nail everything you see and hear, a phrase whispered in my ear to remind me to perform my day with precision and accuracy.
How does the wind speak to you?
What phrases comes to mind?
When the wind sings the rest of nature joins in chorus.
