Walking on Water

You will not believe that
last night I dreamed of a cat.
I called out: what’s the matter,
why are you walking on water?
It was so cool,
the cat ran right across the pool,
its feet never sinking,
not even pausing for some drinking.
I was filled with laughter galore,
I had never seen this before.
It was nice to have a dream like that
left me feeling ever so glad,
still hearing my delighted laughter,
long, long thereafter.
