Her face (a #Dream)

A giant creature was gliding through space. On its back a complete ecosystem with grass, trees and a stream. A man (farmer?) was walking towards the head when he noticed a big hole. He fell in and noticed the entrance to a cave, apparently leading into a barely lit tunnel. He climbed a bit up and entered.

Next I was sitting in a cafeteria and was joined by an older colleague from 35 years ago. I noticed he was wearing a shirt with the same repeating pattern I had on a similar shirt. Soon we were joined by a younger colleague, also wearing the same pattern on his shirt, which was more worn and of a different fabric. The repeating pattern was printed on a black background and of a woman from the roaring twenties with a red headdress and a very pale face. She was smoking and the smoke was circling around her face.

Return home (a #dream)

A friend invited me to a party after she was told she could bring someone. Upon arrival the hostess gave me a warm welcome but seemed a bit surprised I hadn't come with a friend she expected instead of the one she brought me. 

Dozens of people where gathered in this small mansion-like house with no other houses for as far as the eye could see. There seemed to be a party going on in every single room and in every room I entered, people were very hospitable towards me and my friend. We partied, laughed, drank and danced until someone told us to join a group going outside.

The next scene was at a fair and most of us were dressed up by now, wearing all kinds of - mostly silly - costumes. Someone had borrowed me theirs. It was fluffy, yellow and had a hole in one of the pockets where I had kept some of my belonings while my regular clothes were still at the house.

It was all fun and games until I realised I had misplaced my house keys. My dream-me was convinced I hadn't lost them along the way but left them in the house and I started to turn and walk back until someone stopped me: "Don't you see the sun is setting and you'll be too late? The house is already on it's way back to one of the Dutch islands: Terschelling and won't be back for a while."

Shrugging I resigned myself to my fate, not knowing if I'd ever be able to return home.
