Sometimes I wonder

Ah, morning dreams.  I decided last night to work from home today.  No office appointments, so I slept in.  Today promises very hot and sunny, so I will stay in the cool, write, clean baseboards, and contemplate living on the seventh floor, endless food courts and dolphins. 

I dreamed we came back from vacation;
Our house was now in a neighborhood transformed
Row upon row
Of identical bright blue gridded buildings.
We were told
We now lived on the seventh floor
Of one of the buildings.
To get there
We took the front bank of elevators.
When we arrived at our condominium
We were introduced to our neighbor*s friend
From college.
She was project manager for our transformed neighborhood..
Her company had just declared bankruptcy,
So she had decided to teach high school.
The seventh floor
From the back bank of elevators
Was an endless food court
And a dolphin habitat.
We looked for the connection
Between the two parts of the seventh floor.
We never found it.
