thejunipertreeRandom diner talk this evening reminded me of a long, lost childhood memory.
There is a scene in the Wizard of Oz, where Dorothy is lying in the field of poppies with snow drifting softly all around her. She's just starting to shift and stretch, to blink her eyes at her surroundings. She's about to become fully awake. I'm sure most of you know this scene.
When I was little, if you asked me what Heaven looked like, I would tell you it was an endless poppy field. With snow falling quietly around you. That was what it looked like to me, in my head.
Silly, perhaps. But, it still makes me smile to myself.
