An Unlikely Gathering
Prologue- The Dream
Running... in my dream I'm always running. I run trough tall grass... threw a desert until I get to a small body of water. As I stood there contemplating how to get across the water a large Ox lunges into the water. Threw the fogginess of my dream vision I can see a small Rat on the back of the Ox.
I knew I needed to get across the water somehow. When the Ox and Rat got to the end of the water the rat jumped off and took the lead over the Ox. A swift strong Tiger came next and swam by himself toward the other end of the water.
I was standing on the opposite side of water watching the other animals when I could feel a presence beside me; I looked to my left and saw a large Dragon. The Dragon looked at me as if to communicate something then bowed his head to me. I hopped on top of the dragons head and he flew over the small body of water with ease. When we got to the other side I jumped off of the dragons head and took my place with the other animals.
The rest of the dream was spent watching the other seven animals cross the water. An elegant Horse black as the night was next after the Dragon to cross the water but was scared by a crafty snake that came across the water before the horse. A Sheep, a Monkey and a Rooster helped one another across the water and took their places on the other side with the rest of the animals. A Dog ran full force into the water. Before he got out of the water to join the other animals he splashed around in the water playing with a stick. The Dog finally removed himself from the water and joined the growing number of animals on the land. All the animals kept standing there looking across the water... we were waiting.
After what felt like hours a very plump looking pig came to the edge of the water. He slowly got into the water and swam across the water to the other side with the rest of the animals.
And that's where the dream ends.
I usually spend the rest of the night dreaming of a meadow filled with purple wildflowers and a stream running threw it from a beautiful waterfall. I'm usually alone in my meadow but occasionally I would be visited by some of the animals from my dream. Since I've had this dream I have been visited by the Ox and the pig. The animals never do much when they visit the meadow. They usually go about their own thing as if I'm not even there... but I guess if I wanted them to they could do whatever I wanted... It was my dream after all. I'll be there again tomorrow and for many more nights after.
