Day-Dream
by Thomas Moore
'Day-Dream' Summary
The poem begins with the speaker describing a beautiful summer day, which lulls him into a state of reverie. In his daydream, he is transported to a realm of his imagination, where he encounters a series of fantastical scenes and characters. He meets a group of fairies dancing in a meadow, witnesses a battle between knights and giants, and sails on a ship to a distant land. Throughout his dream, the speaker reflects on the nature of imagination and the power of the human mind to create and explore new worlds.Book Details
