I am standing in a roped line. Ahead of me are many rows of people that weave back and forth following the roped path. The line is moving forward slowly. We are in a large room, well lit, with many windows, old wood floors, and painted walls. I can see an open doorway ahead. To the left of the doorway a man is sitting in a chair, positioned so that the people in line have to walk by him. He is bald and clean shaven, physically fit, with large dark eyes, dressed in a black t-shirt, black pants, and black shoes. His arms are crossed over his chest, and one leg is crossed over the other with the left ankle resting on the right knee. His head is turned to the left, watching each person as they move past. His expression does not change and he does not speak.

Next to him, on the floor, is a small alligator. The hide is black and smooth with a multicolor hue washed over the hide of green, blue, and purple. There are a few shallow treads down the back, like you see on a tire, not the hide of a typical alligator. This creature has small eyes, a small mouth, and small teeth, not the typical features. The eyes are looking at people as they pass and the mouth is constantly moving. This movement of the mouth enabled me to see the small teeth. I can hear no words. The head and the body do not move, but the eyes and teeth move continually.

I am moving closer to where the man and the small alligator are positioned. I still cannot see clearly but it appears they are sitting at the doorway opening. Once the people pass them, they enter a dark room or connecting hallway. Nothing is visible beyond this point. People are continuing to move along past this man and the alligator. I notice an elderly couple at the door opening with arms linked and one is using a cane. I cannot see faces of the people, only their backs.

Immediately in front of me is a peacock, and I can only see the head. At my side is a baby toddler in a wagon. I am not pulling the wagon. The wagon is moving next to me. As we get closer to the man in black and the alligator, this creature starts nipping at the peacock and pulling at some feathers. I feel the need to pick up the child and hold it in my arms for protection. The man is watching and says nothing. This is when I saw that his eyes were dark. He allows the alligator to continue nipping at the peacock. He remains sitting in the chair, looking at us as we move closer. I am concerned for the peacock, the child, and myself.

I woke up at this point.  

I shared this dream soon afterwards with the couple that served as my spiritual parents. The husband was able to give me the interpretation and the three of us prayed together regarding the revelation. I was led to pray for specific groups of people at that time and to continue onward.

I do not talk about these gifts from heaven and have only shared a few of them with other people. Holy Spirit provides interpretation in His timing and I follow His leading. God is releasing the dreams in my next book.
