The he was a sleep in a short time

And he dreamed of africa

When he was a boy in the long golden beaches and the white beaches

So white

They hurt your eyes and the high capes in the great brown mountains

He lived along that coast now every night and in his dreams

He heard the surf raw and saw the native boats come riding through it

He smelled the tar and open of the deck as he slept

And he smelled the smell of africa

That the land breeze brought at morning

Usually when he smelled the land breeze

He woke up and dresto go and wait the boy

But tonight the smell of the landbreeze came very early

And he knew it was too early in his dream and went on dreaming to see the white peeks of the islands

Rising throw en the sea

And then he dreamed of the different harbors and roadstes of the canary islands

He no longer dreamed of storms

Nor of women

Nor of great occurances

Nor of great fish

Nor fights

No contests of strength

Nor of his wife

He only dreamed of places now and of the lions on the beach

They played like young cats in the dusk

And he alloved them as he loved the boy

He never dreamed about the boy

He simply work looked out the open door at the moon

And unrolled his trousers

And put them on he urinated outside the shack

And then went up the road to wake the boy

He was shivering with tea

He morning cold

But he knew he would shiver himself warm

And that soon he would be rowing the door of the house

Where the boy lived was unlocked

And he opened it

And walked in quietly with his bare feet

The boy was asleep on a cut in the first room

And the old man could see him clearly with the light that came in from the dying moon

He took hold of one foot gently and held it

Until the boy woke conturned and looked at him

The old man nodded

And the boy took his trousers from the chair by the bed and sitting on

The bed pulled on the old man went out a door

And the boy came after him

He was sleepy

And the old man put his arm across his shoulders

And said i am sorry

Gara

The boy said it is what a man must do
