    reverie

    /ˈrɛv(ə)ri/
    noun
    A state of being pleasantly lost in one's thoughts; a daydream.
    mass noun ‘I slipped into reverie’

    Origin
    Early 17th century from obsolete French resverie, from Old French reverie ‘rejoicing, revelry’, from rever ‘be delirious’, of unknown ultimate origin.

    ==========

    Our memories of words past become reveries as they retreat into the distance. Some are remembered as light daydreams, others, rarely (we hope), as dark nightmares.
