Chapter III: Dreaming

By: Michelle

I dream of rain

I dream of gardens in the desert sand

I wake in pain

I dream of love as time runs through my hand

She turned slowly and met his glance. Her eyes sparkled at him. Her slightly parted mouth turned into a sweet smile.

I dream of fire

These dreams are tied to a horse that will never tire

And in the flames

Her shadows play in the shape of a man's desire

She continue to smile when she spoke. "Hi. What's your name?"

This desert rose

Each of her veils, a secret promise

This desert flower

No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this

Michaelangelo stood there in awe. "Ummm."

And as she turns

This way she moves in the logic of all my dreams

This fire burns

I realize that nothing's as it seems

She giggled. "So, you're name is Ummm."

I dream of rain

I dream of gardens in the desert sand

I wake in pain

I dream of love as time runs through my hand

To dumbfounded to say anything, Michaelangelo shook his head.

I dream of rain

I lift my gaze to empty skies above

I close my eyes, this rare perfume

Is the sweet intoxication of her love

She bit her lip and smiled again.

I dream of rain

I dream of gardens in the desert sand

I wake in pain

I dream of love as time runs through my hand

"I'm Michaelangelo."

Sweet desert rose

Each of her veils, a secret promise

This desert flower

No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this

"Michaelangelo."

"Yeah." His mouth nearly dropped to the ground when she spoke his name. "What's your name?"

Sweet desert rose

This memory of Eden haunts us all

This desert flower, this rare perfume

Is the sweet intoxication of the fall

"My name is…YO! Earth to Mikey."

"Whah?" Michaelangelo opened his eyes and looked around.

Mondo Gecko sat back in his seat. "We'll be landing soon."

"We're in Hawaii already." Michaelangelo looked out the window of the plane.

"Yeah." Mondo Gecko buckled back his seatbelt.

"That was fast."

"Well, you slept the whole time."

"Oh." Michaelangelo leaned back in his seats.

"Five minutes til Hawaiian babes." Mondo Gecko smiled.

"OH, yeah."

The song, Desert Rose, was written and performed by Sting.
