The Dolphin Dream


This was quite an odd piece of a dream which tacked onto the end of another dream (which was about hiding out in a jewellery shop in some kind of apocalypse, but I can’t remember that one well enough). I was in an indoor pool, the water was tepid. I was sort of sitting or leaning heavily on a keyboard. A dolphin was in the water in front of me, it had it’s head in my lap. With my left hand I was reaching around tinkling a little tune on the keyboard. I have basic piano playing skills and I knew that what I was playing would not have sounded like it did, but in the dream it sounded lovely like a soft lullaby. The dolphin loved the tune, I was looking it in the eye as it was relaxing and it’s eye was slowly falling shut. Then I leaned in and kissed it on the cheek. That was the end of the dream.
