Everyone was there
Somewhere
There were people everywhere
Scattered…
“He’s not here”
She turns toward the voice
It sounded so much like her own
“He’s here…” she says
Lacking assurance in her voice
“He’s not here”
The voice calmly states again
“But everyone is here!” says she
Her eyes dart from space to space
Suddenly the room seems empty…
Where is he…?
Panic sinks into her chest
Where!
She involuntarily inhales, deep, and quick--
He’s not here…
He’s not…
Had he not called for her to come?

She wakes…

A dream of the departed…

I understand something like this so well.  I hope you won't be offended, if I say that my experience is not with a person, but with my beloved late horse.
