I had this incredibly vivid dream last night. In it, I was walking towards a large, cropped field with some grassy spaces. The first thing that I noticed was this pretty little plain house. It was blue, and somehow elevated, though the ground didn't appear to be hilly, and it wasn't floating. Two staircases flanked its simple exterior, rising like the marble ones you would see in a fancy house, but they were wooden, boardwalk-type staircases.
Something moved and I looked to the right to see a young Cole Porter (portrayed in my dream by Kevin Kline, as in the movie De-Lovely,) reclining in one of the grassy patches of the field. He was in a white full-length lawn-chair or something, holding a fishing pole which moored a kite aloft just above the house.
It's our house, I realized. Upon this discovery, I noticed I was wearing a long, flowing white summer dress. Cole Porter/Kevin Kline looked up and smiled, with that light smile he has, and I awoke.
I'm not going to pick apart my dream and reflect upon its deeper meaning, or derive significance from Cole Porter's lifestyle and the losses portrayed in the film. I just thought it was this really sweet, pretty dream, with the farmhouse, and the kite, and the two of us in white.
