"What if you slept? And what if, in your sleep, you dreamed? And what if, in your dream, you went to heaven and plucked a strange and beautiful flower? And what if, when you awoke, you had the flower in your hand? Ah, what then?" Samuel Taylor Coleridge

What then?

Tell as about that heavenly bloom.  What kind of a stem was it on?  And was its aroma half as sweet as its shape?

What did you think, waking to find this bloom at hand?  And what did you do with your morning blessing?

Was that morning flower concrete, metaphoric, or some wondrous crossing the two?

go ahead, let your words flow, and tell us what happened then.

And a little blossom shall please them?
