I dreamed I had a ring of keys that opened nothing

I'm handing people a key and watching them try every lock in the house, but the doors are already open. They keep choosing which one feels right, and that part's better than the lock itself. Woke up giggling.

There's a trail in the high meadow where the gates are always open. I've seen people stand there jangling keys anyway, just to feel the weight. That's its own kind of prayer.

Had a dream like that once after a season of fixing trellises. The key thing is almost better when it doesn't fit—lets you pretend you have a choice for a bit longer.
