it was almost sunset I was in my room napping from a long day I woke to the sound of tapping on my window I rose out of bed my feet cold against the hard wood floor when I got to the window I saw him standing there in the grass of my lawn with a rock in his hand I smiled at the boy and he waved a hand motioning for me to come out side I held up one finger to signal just a moment I walked down the stairs into the living room my father was watching the t.v I told him I was going for a walk and headed out the door I ran up to the boy and put my arms around his waist he said come this way we ran hand in hand together through a field he stopped and sat down in the grass I followed him we sat and talked his arm around my back the entire time the sky was getting darker and he reached out beside himself and plucked something from the ground he held it out in front of me it was a dandelion he said if you could have one wish what would it be I said that moments like these would last forever and blew the dust from the steam then he said as long as you keep dreaming moments like these will last forever then I woke up from the dream and rolled over in my bed and on the pillow beside me was a single dandelion that had been carefully placed and I smiled to myself as I remembered the boy.
