"Nice photo.  Where did you take it?"
     "Glad you like it.  I saw it in my dream last night."


"You took a photograph of your dream?"
     "Yes."


"How?"
     "It imprinted itself on my soul and in the morning, before I was too awake, I pressed  myself against the patio door glass."


"What were you thinking?"
     "I wasn't."


"So, you captured this....image...?"
     "Yes, on the patio door.  It's a rough outline of the image on my soul.  Just a sketch, really; a rendering.  I can't describe the real thing in words."


"Beautiful."
     "You have no idea."


"I love the beautiful green and the sky and the horizon.  And the clouds - I love how the clouds form over the deep river-gorge as if constellating its opposite."
     "It's not a gorge and sky and clouds."


"What is it?"
     "The Mystery."
