Arms and Heralds

I once had a dream about my father, who in this dream had died as a Knight and was buried in a knight's stone coffin above-ground. He had left behind on top of his coffin for my mother, sister and me each a pair of outrageous shoes he had designed for us to express his feelings for us. Each pair was so fantastical, with feathers and stitches and outrageous colors - some boots, some evening shoes of medieval variety. (I wish I had photos!) We were so taken aback by his creative expressions, we all put on our shoes and laughed. It was a wonderful dream, and I remember in particular the way our arms looked putting them on, so pale and ghostly and long. Since then, arms and crests and all things knightly have belonged together in my dreams.
