THE POOL (May 26, 2014)
I dreamt that my beloved and I were staying in a hotel room that had a swimming pool attached to it. It was a great joy for both of us. It was in a large room alike the room in which we were staying. The water was on the warm side, and it was wonderful to look out of the pool across a large city I do not remember any longer. All I remember is that I was quite interested in the architecture of the hotel. To build a pool, they must have emptied an entire hotel room. I wondered how many rooms had pools attached to them, but I woke up before I could learn anything about this hotel feature. Before I fell asleep again, I mulled over what I had witnessed in my dream. The weight of the pool required a sturdy structure for the building. It must have been built in concrete, I thought. The memory of the dream was still with me in the morning. The pool was a wonderful feature, no doubt. And it struck me as a perfectly plausible way to make the hotel more attractive to choosy guests, like my beloved and I.
