Creepy Lovecraftian dream.

I'd wandered out from Squirrel Hill into the semi-wilderness south of the Parkway. Enjoyed the flowers on the walk at first--I remember trumpet vine, and roses, and tulips. I climbed on this lovely old railroad bridge that had been made into a pedestrian walkway before going further.

A friend (I won't say who, because it wasn't really her) found me there in the forest. She wanted to give me something as a token of her love: she had made a copy of a web page out of clay (and glazed it, all one off-white color).
