Follow my pawprints, hold on my smile, laugh at my jokes, walk by my side, look into my dream every single day!
Come, little leaves, – said the wind one day.
Come down to the meadow
And we shall play.
Put on your dresses
Of red and gold,
For summer is past
And the days grow cold.
Dancing and leaping
The leaves went along,
Until the winter called them
To end their sweet song.
Soon, fast asleep
In their earthy beds,
The snow will lay a coverlet
Over their heads.

Dream \ ˈdrēm \ noun, often attributive and verb.
In a broad sense of the term, any mental activity, even fragmentary, that takes place during sleep; in a more restricted and more common sense, the more or less clear and detailed activity which generally occurs in the phases of REM sleep with a more or less coherent narrative structure, mainly characterized by visual sensations and emotional participation of the sleeper.
Etimology. Middle English dreem; Old English drēam (joy, mirth, gladness, noise, music), cognate with Old Saxon drōm (mirth, dream); Old Norse draumr (dream), Old High German troum (dream).
Until the 13th century in Old English the word dream meant joy, noise and music. Yet by the end of the 14th century the meaning had been entirely replaced after many conflicts, conquests and settlements by Scandinavian and Norman populations in Britain from the 9th century. As a matter of fact, the Old Norse word draumr (a dream during sleep) influenced the meaning of the etymologically related English word.
A dream is an imaginary series of events that you experience in your mind while you are asleep. You can refer to a situation as a dream if you often think about it because you would like it to happen. You can use dream to describe something that you think is ideal or perfect, especially if it is something that you thought you would never be able to have or experience. If you say that you would not dream of doing something, you are emphasizing that you would never do it because you think it is wrong or is not possible or suitable for you or unpleasant and very strange and unlikely to you. If you say that something is a dream, you mean that it is wonderful.
A series of contrasting or distressing thoughts, images or emotions occurring during sleep: nightmare. An experience of waking life having the characteristics of a dream, a visionary creation of the imagination: daydream. A state of mind marked by abstraction or release from reality: reverie. An object seen in a dreamlike state: vision. Something notable for its beauty, excellence or enjoyable quality: dream. A strongly desired goal or purpose or something that fully satisfies a wish: ideal.
Dream, nightmare and vision refer to the kinds of mental images that form during sleep. Dream is the general term for any such succession of images. A nightmare is a dream that brings fear or anxiety: frightened by a nightmare. Vision refers to a series of images of unusual vividness, clarity, order and significance, sometimes seen in a dream.
Estate (poetico o regionale està; popolare istate, state) sostantivo femminile [latino aestas –atis, dal tema di aestus –us «calore»].
1. Seconda stagione dell’anno, compresa, per l’emisfero boreale, tra il solstizio d’estate (21 giugno) e l’equinozio d’autunno (23 settembre), caratterizzata da temperatura notevolmente più elevata perché il Sole permane un maggior numero di ore sull’orizzonte e perché i raggi solari investono meno obliquamente l’atmosfera terrestre: passare l’estate in campagna, cioè il periodo estivo; e con riferimento alle condizioni climatiche e meteorologiche: un’estate calda, torrida, afosa, piovosa; entrare nell’estate (spesso con allusione all’inizio del caldo più che al vero inizio della stagione; e così: l’estate si può dire ormai finita, ai primi temporali, o ai primi abbassamenti della temperatura); nel pieno, nel colmo dell’estate, nel periodo più caldo della stagione.
2. Estate di san Martino: séguito di belle giornate, con sensibile aumento della temperatura rispetto ai giorni precedenti, che si verifica spesso nell’Europa occidentale verso il giorno di san Martino (11 novembre).

4. Diminutivo: estatina, un’estate (o parte di essa) trascorsa non sgradevolmente: è stata un’estatina piacevole; diminutivo e spregiativo: estatùccia, estate poco buona, per condizioni climatiche o perché trascorsa in modo poco soddisfacente; peggiorativo: estatàccia, un’estate brutta, di cattivo tempo, o con avvenimenti spiacevoli, o comunque trascorsa male: è stata un’estataccia, è piovuto quasi sempre!; ho un monte di lavoro arretrato: prevedo un’estataccia.
