This is a story
About a short dream
It brings things to light
More real than they seem
I was enjoying a break
On a holiday isle
When a girl tapped my shoulder
And gave me a smile
She said "Could you take my father
for a ride in his chair?"
I said "I'm taking some time
Resting from my wife's care."
Then suddenly her tapping
Seemed more pronounced
And out of my dream
I, all at once, bounced.
My wife, it appeared,
Needed immediate action
Her taps brought me out
Of the far-off distraction
And so ends the dream
That was more than it seemed
I came back to life
To care for my wife.

Author Notes
This really happened this very morning. Many of you know I have been my wife's primary carer for some years. More recently since she had her Right Rotator Cuff injury, back in May last year. We have written about this elsewhere. Thanks to tekayep for "Dreamy Days"
