I want to dedicate this to Jon, my constant inspiration. I would like to thank all those who joined my new forum: Hawkeye's Haven. You've made my website and the board possible. Thanks to all of you!


I cling to consciousness,

An unfamiliar rushing

Fills my ears

But

I do not fall.

I am cradled against a strong chest

As

Blackness envelops

Me.

I know I am dreaming.

For, when I wake

He is there.

He is but a fantasy,

Yet

I hear his voice,

Joking,

Laughing.

No words will come

For me.

He stands

To leave.

My arm reaches out;

Catching him,

Gently.

With a few simple words I manage

To ask

A single question.

Silence reigns

For a brief moment

Before he answers.

"You're at the 4077 MASH."

It's then I know,

I never want to wake up.
