Just different…

It was contrived but beautiful. The vista from left to right was of the tallest, greenest, trees you have ever seen. I wonder if they are deciduous? Summer time, of course, is no time to ask such questions.
Because now with the sun full, and high overhead, all one could really see was an ocean of green dappled light in the under croft of a magnificent forest.
Twinkling lights seemed to be flitting about in the canopy as I wandered closer. I could hear conversation.
“I think it beastly how the goblins have behaved lately…”
“You do? In what regard?”
“In the matter of credit default swaps”
“Oh that… in the matter of risks involved with mortgage-backed security derivatives I’m afraid I am quite ignorant…”
With not another word, the two fairies alighted, and flew off, aglow, into the distance.
There was a little boy standing beside me.
He looked up at me and grinned.
And we walked off, hand in hand, into the forest.
I awoke.
