His eyes were closed shut. It couldn’t be – he was so relaxed – so calm – it was so peaceful
Oh, it must have been a dream – he didn’t want to wake up. He felt light, weightless – he was floating
A floating melody sounded in the distance
Staying in one place – no need to move, he thought – he was floating
Slowly, gradually, he began to open his eyes. And he saw
A cathedral – high in the sky – surrounded by nothing but blue
It was a glorious sight – the windows were tall and beautiful
Chimes – ringing in the distance…
…as a feeling of dread overcame him – where was he? Why was he here? What brought him to this place – what was this place – it was beautiful – and simultaneously…
It was haunting…
He closed his eyes and felt himself in the air, and he began to fall – peacefully
He felt the air, the wind on his face, he heard the chimes ringing, he must be falling – but the chimes were getting closer
He heard the music – he opened his eyes – a city – made of light
He was greeted by a fanfare of glorious sunlight – the gates to the cathedral opened – he looked up – the sky
As the trumpets blew, he found himself in the air once again
…and the cathedral was gone, he was in the sky, flying, like a bird
He was floating again
The chimes were sounding, softly, all around him, three chimes at a time
He was caressed in light
He fell slowly
The chimes rang three times
Nothing, only light
and blue
