True Love Haibun

Every morning when I wake up, I drink coffee and reflect on the fairy tale aspect of my life.  I met the girl of my dreams in a dream 45 years ago.  She was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen. She spoke to me in a strange language and disappeared. I yell out “Who are you?” She smiled and faded away as I fell to the ground in my HS school physics class. I started having the dream every week for eight long years then one day she walked off a bus in South Korea, and entered my life and became my wife two months later.  That was the date I met my fate.

She came in my dream
For eight years haunting my dreams
I met fate  that date
