I am sitting outside on the terrace, the sun has already risen, it is very quiet only a few birds are singing, and a rooster is crowing in the distance. Light ground fog over the fields and fields testifies to the presence of autumn. An old sour cherry tree, which has already colored its leaves, also bears witness to the end of summer. I take a sip of coffee, the red of the oleander blossoms catches my eye and I think of your lips, of a heartfelt good morning kiss and how wonderful that would be now.

The sun has meanwhile risen higher, and the shadows of the opposite hill are getting shorter, the fog is still bravely holding on, quite although it is noticeably thinning. The warm rays of sunshine on my skin make me think again of what it would be like if your hands touched me now, I held you in my arms and together we looked forward to the waking day. A brilliant blue, cloudless sky, pristine, untarnished by artificial toxic substances emitted by planes, stretches as far as the eye can see in the clear, cooler autumn air.

Even when I look at the sky, I think of you, of us, when we love each other and float up there, much higher, weightless, beyond time, just the two of us, united as a one, disappearing into a higher plane.

As soon as I’ve had these wonderful thoughts with my eyes closed, I hear a plane in the distance, why is geoengineering being carried out, why destroy what nature has made? So, I ponder this and that, looking for meaning and answers. I take another sip of cold coffee, which has cooled down considerably, and let my gaze wander around again.

The day is progressing, it has become much warmer, and the stone slabs and masonry are slowly beginning to warm up. I think of you again, of all the beauty, of these incredible feelings, of your closeness, your face and your body, the laughter and the talk, the togetherness, this is how I dream into the day with open eyes, dream a Dream, dream my big dream.
