Out in the desert I met a man, he

looked familiar yet it escaped me he

seems friendly but I was cautious, he

didn't say a word still I understood

him...and there was peace. I continued

on my voyage, an atmosphere of the

unknown enveloped the path, where

did it come from? where is it going? I

saw a figure, another man, trees

growing out of the bare sand,

surrounding  us, they blocked the

path. What is going on? I asked the

man,  he shrugged his  shoulders. Rain

is coming I cannot see the man is

fading but I feel reassured that

everything will be alright. He winked,

dissapeared... I feel calm relaxed --

message acknowledged. I was

transported to the city, a true concrete

jungle. I feel close to home although I

don't recognize any of the streets,

buildings, sidewalks. No one around

for directions except for a friendly

face, a soothing smile, a passionate

voice. This time a storm approaches, it

is unescapable, I'm completely blind

and growing desperate. His touch

startles me but I feel comfort, care,

and a promise. My sight returning the

name is gone. Looking around I see all

three together, I joined, where are we

going? We are there...!
