Message From the Universe

"I feel I am meant to give you a message," 

she said, walking up to me, smiling.

I had never seen her before.

But my ears perked up.

I am always alert for messages.

"In a dream, I saw you walking on a beach

with a little black puppy.

And there was a wolf somewhere, watching,

in the trees.

Does this make any sense to you?"

"Oh, yes! This is the dream of my life,

and your message gives me hope

that it will come true.

And yes, I know the wolf,

who is watching."

We smile. She walks away.

Now, here I am,

walking on the beach with a little black puppy.

I smile over towards the trees,

where I know a big black wolf

has his eyes on me.

for Grace's prompt at dVerse: Secrets of the Universe, to write about everyday life with a note of wonder, or the mystical. Some of this poem is true - the message part - the ending is my fantasy, LOL. Great prompt, Grace!
