What is the meaning in a dream of porch

I was sitting at home on the back porch talking with my dad and my service dog was laying on my lap when a black panther came after my dad and my dog killed them both and attacked and injured me

My father passed away, Last night I noticed hes on the porch like he needed help

At a light. 1 car in front of us. light with railroad track. one train went in front of us on the driver side straight. our light stayed red. not understanding why we couldn't go straight. then looked further ahead and saw another train going to the right in a turn position. (other side of the light.) staright train stopped. 1 more right in front. we were in between 2 tracks. front one had train go by. everyone's car shook but ours. all trains stopped and we went home. dropped off megan. then dropped me off. walked in the house from back door. walked up the porch and in kitchen door. then i went into living room to set down mail. walked back into kitchen to get coffee. then i hear the back door handle jiggle. i turn around and a man walked in. hoping no one was home, we stood there and looked at me. then looked into the family room then back at me and stared at me. then i woke up?!
