It is striking how our dreams (and memories/reveries) of the newly deceased first replicate the fragility and hardship of their last days, and then, over time, return them to us in their bright vitality. And those visitations! How matter-of-fact they are. Lovely post, LeeAnn. Thank you.

Thanks so much, X. P. My dreams have been so vivid lately. So much stuff has been stirred over the last few months.

The cover of the book is perfect for a book of dreams.

Isn’t it? The artist is Susan Seddon Boulet and the title of the painting is, appropriately, Dreamworld.

Life that slips into dreams, dreams that turn into poems, poems, beings of their own.

Thank you for sharing all of these with us, LeeAnn.
