Sandman Dreams

It was late, but I couldn't sleep. Ever since I had met the seven foot tall rabbit I had become lost in my own imagination. I wasn't sure if what I saw was a dream or reality. Everyday since then I would return to the woods in hopes of catching another glimpse of the talking rabbit. The Easter Bunny did say he only comes once a year though.

I let out a tired sigh as I left my bed and fetched my cloak. I should have dawned more clothes, but it was a warm spring night. In just my gown and cloak I made my way outside my home as quietly as I could so not to wake my sister. I walked to the lake just feet from my home and knelt down. I took in my reflection. My long brown hair was falling over my shoulders and just inches from taking a dip in the water.

I gently tugged on a tip and twiddled it in my fingers. "Jackson Overland, you need a hair cut young man." I laughed at myself as I had attempted to mimic my mothers scolding tone. Suddenly in the reflection of the lake I noticed the sky stream with gold. I snapped my head to the skies above. Streaks of gold spread about the sky like mini rivers. Curiosity got the better me and I decided to follow a river of it to the source. The further I ventured into the woods the thicker bends of gold flooded the sky.

I was near the cliff that over looked the village. As I was closing in on the cliff the streams of gold seemed to flow around me. I stopped and glanced about the gold river. "It...kinda looks...like..sand?" I tentatively reached my hand out to touch it, but as my fingers brushed the golden stream a figure burst from what I was now sure was golden sand. It was a bunny and it began to hop around me feverishly. I chuckled as it brushed my cheek and bounced off til it burst into a sparkling dust that simple faded away. I quickly glanced back to the sand and then to the direction it was coming from.

I moved my feet as fast as I could and as I burst from the brush that blocked me from the cliff I froze. Perched at the ever tip of the cliff was a small golden man made from the golden sand I was following. My mouth hung open in shock and amazement. The golden river of sand swirled from him and spread about the village.

I shook my head and brought myself out of my daze. Attempting to be as silent as possible I made my way to the man. As I got just a foot behind him he slowly turned to me wearing a bright and welcoming smile. I halted as he turned to me and my eyes grew wide. I could feel a blush creeping its way across my cheeks. I was caught and thoroughly embarrassed for even thinking I could get one over on the clearly magical man. I slowly traded my shocked look for a small smile.

"Um..hello. I..uh..aaahhh..." The golden man let out a silent laugh and fully turned to face me. He made a hat appear above his head out of the same sand that was his body. He bowed slightly and tipped his hat to me. My blushed deepened and I returned the bow. Images flashed above his head slowly.

The sandy images were of a large bleach. The sand that the waves lapped upon swirled into an image of a man. I smiled as I got the gesture. "Sandman?" He nodded and his smile grew a bit. I couldn't help, but return the infectious smile. "I'm...Jackson Overland." Silence fall between us after that and the 'Sandman' returned to his work. I slowly made my way beside him and knelt down and stared at him in wonder and curiosity. "What are you doing...exactly?" He turned to me briefly.

Several images appeared above his head once more, but somewhat quicker than before. I watched closely. The images were of a child in a bed. Their face was solemn and then sand seemed to sprinkle over the child and their face began to wear a smile while images now floated above the child's head. I was silent for a moment before I spoke. "You give the children...dreams? To help them sleep?" He nodded once more and I simply smirked. "You don't talk much huh?" He put a finger to his lips and Zzz's floated above his head. I nodded in understand and turned my gaze from the man to take in the view of my village. A tired yawn escaped my lips and my eye lids dropped slightly. When I felt a gently pat on my shoulder I glanced to the Sandman to see him smiling at me gently before he nodded to me and some of his sand sprinkled my face.


I awoke from my sleep with a jolt. I glanced about the small room as sat up in my bed. I frowned. "It just a dream?" I sighed and looked over to my sister. She was still sleeping soundly so I laid back onto my bed. I brought my hands to rest at the sides of my head when I felt a strange texture brushing against the back of my right hand. I turned over and sat up on my elbows and my eyes doubled in size.

Golden sand dusted my bed, but as I ran my fingers over it the sand began to fade away and warm smile broke across my face. "Sandman.."
