I dreamed I worked in a
Huge office building.
Everyone had their own
Desk, but nobody had
Anything to do. Shuffling
Through papers, going
Through drawers got old
After awhile. Things got
Pretty weird. Eventually,
I told myself I was
Dreaming and woke up.
Everybody wants to be
Thanked when they do
Something good for
Someone else. Or if they
Have worked hard at
Something and finally
Achieved their goal.
Giving thanks is more
Important to the person
Than a monetary reward.
The young couple had just
Gotten married and set
Out on that inevitable
Next step of finding a
Place to live. They both
Worked but didn’t make
That much money. They
Looked at houses in their
Price range and all were
Fairly humble dwellings.
But the new husband said
Whatever we buy and I
Carry you over the threshold
Over will be a mansion.
