Inspired Conversation

Sipping on my morning coffee at my favorite spot a handsome gentlemen slender built
approached me and said excuse me I have a nine-o-clock appointment with a lady by the 
name of Joleen, with a warm smile I stopped writing and began to listen. I apologized 
that
I'm not indeed Joleen.He said with great determination I believe in dreams, dreams are 
very real,again I said I'm sorry you have mistaken me I truly hope  you find Joleen.As I 
sipped on my coffee brew hoping this man would awaken from his illusion and regroup.
I gently spoke you might want to go get yourself a latte and look out toward the bay, 
I'm sure she's not far away. Now do you see why I need my latte to start my day,
an inspired conversation from a stranger in Seattle
