Dreams, are they the future?

Dreams:

Are they the future?

Awakening alone in the bright moonlight,

For me the dream was a very vivid fright.

The faceless man once again rescued me,

When, may I ask, will his face I see?

His kiss was tender, gentle and sweet,

How long will this happen, before we meet?

Will I forever deny and be unaware,

When he always waits patiently there?

The thunder still rolls through the night,

Yet in his arms protected there is no fright.

Always the same this dream tortures me,

Wondering wanting what life holds for me.

Do dreams offer warnings or some times cheer,

Why must this persist and make me fear?

His face I feel is hidden from me,

Yet I am not able to distinguish or see.

Is it me so afraid, to once again be loved,

For the stars point to him sent from above.

Oh what fun!!

Earlier this week I was awakened about 2:00 A.M. feeling extremely cold. I finally slipped out from under my covers and raced to start the gas wall heater, it was really cold that night. I then went to adjust the thermostat and nothing happened, so I tried again. My furnace would not come on. I was so cold that I couldn't think straight. Finally I went to the kitchen and turned on all four burners hoping for more heat. Boy did I get it fast. There were two small and I do mean tiny spots of grease on one burner, and that is all it took. That little tiny itsy bitsy amount of smoke set off both smoke detectors immediately, if not sooner. No fire, just a little puff of smoke. I rushed to the first one waving my arms frantically telling it to shut up. Then to the other one doing the same thing. Now that one would stop-start-stop-start and in between I was turning on fans. I finally got the smoke detectors to stop, and believe me there is nothing to put you in fear faster than that sound at 2:30 in the morning.
Finally I was able to think sanely again and I knew the furnace had pulled that trick before. About three years ago I remembered that I had to flip the breaker switch off and then back on. That did it and so off went the stove burners, gas heater and after adjusting the thermostat I crawled back under the covers. A shame there wasn't a video, because I am sure that would have won first place with honors as well.
