Try the poet Emily Dickenson. She wrote a ton of material, and there is a ton of material about her!

I'd give the nod to BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER by Paul Simon, but would also consider IN DREAMS co-written by Roy Orbison.

The Beatles? No, Carroll wrote that book waaaaay before the Beatles. I haven't read that book, but I think Mr. Carroll did some of the old hashish in his day. Supposedly that is what caused Alice's hallucinatory dreams. I guess I should get around to reading it someday. But don't take my word for it, in case I'm wrong I'd hate to slander him, and after all he is not here to defend himself.\n\nJade's explanation is interesting, and now that I think of it, I vaguely remember being disturbed by that scene in the Disney version. The walrus is creepy.

Winter Dreams is very similar to F Scott Fitzgerald life. The story is about a boy from small town in Minnesota, where the author himself grew up. Plus about been accepted in society that i mean rich society.

I was sitting on a metal chair in a semi-circle in a very large room with a group of people. This was my dream:\n\n   The guy sitting to my left stood up and proclaimed: "My name is Rockinjellfish and I am here to tell you about swimming in a sea of broken glass," he then sat down. To my right a strikingly beautiful woman with long blond hair raised her hand, when no one called on her, she stood up and in a melodious voice said:"My name is Proud Mommy and I hate my accent!" Things were warming up now....another said: "My name is Chillin n Grillin and I drink Pabst Blue Ribbon for breakfast, lunch, and dinner," yet another: "My name is Airplanegirl and I want someone to fly me," followed by : "My name is Smilesfromred and I have always wanted to know if brunettes have more fun,"\n"My name is Mr.Sky and I have an identity crisis because of the Mr.," my name is Laura and I do so want to be tied up," "Hi, I'm\nFreyja will you help me with the horses," "Ohhhh Please...my name is StillNOCouch and I want to bomb something," "My name is Mr. Enzyme and I am very punny,"Monitorhead here, let me be your web host," My name is Einstein, let me out of this bottle,"  this went on for  hours.....one person after another standing and giving a one line statement. \n\nI awoke in a state of panic, sweating and breathing heavy to realize it was only a bad dream. Must watch what I read before going to bed from now on.

I know it was in the movie.\n\nBut, "Field Of Dreams" was based on the book, "Shoeless Joe Jackson" by WP Kinsella.\n\nSo the quote may have come from there initially.

A Dream Deferred by Langston Hughes\n\nThe question, “What happens to a dream deferred?” appears to be answered with nothing but more questions.  But if we analyze each question we get an idea of what the speaker really believes about dreams being postponed. The “dream” is a goal in life, not just dreams experienced during sleep.  The dream is important to the dreamer’s life.  But what dream is it exactly?  The poem does not choose the dream but leaves it up to the reader.  Nevertheless, the speaker’s position is clear that any important dream or goal that must be delayed can have serious negative affects.  As we look at each question we find out what those affects are.  With each question the speaker offers a possibility of each negative affect.  The first one “Does it dry up like a raisin in the sun”:  a raisin is already dry, and as a raisin, it is a good thing, useful and nutritious, but if a raisin is left in the sun to dry up, it becomes hard and impossible to eat; its value sucked out, it no longer serves its useful, nutritional purpose.  The dream or life goal of a human being is central to what makes the human a valuable member of society, but suppose that person with the dream is told he cannot fulfill his goal just yet; he must wait until society changes, until institutions and laws change to allow him to become the doctor, lawyer, professor, or poet that he finds his talent and desires direct him to be.  What if he has to take some other job that he lacks interest in until his environment allows him to attain his goal?  What if he has no idea how long it will take?  And what if he feels that perhaps in his lifetime that time will never come?  What happens then?  Surely, his talent will dry up, if he is not allowed to develop it. If the dream does not dry up, maybe it will “fester like a sore— / And then run.”  If you have a sore, you want it to dry up so it will heal, but if it festers and runs, that means it is infected and will take longer to heal.  The dream that festers becomes infected with the disease of restlessness and dissatisfaction that may lead to criminal activity, striking back at those who are deferring the dream. Perhaps a dream put off too long is like meat that had rotted.  Dead animal flesh that some people use for food will turn rancid and give of horrible odors if not used within a certain time frame.  If the dream is not realized in a timely fashion, it may seem to decay because it dies.\nThe dream may “crust and sugar over— / Like a syrupy sweet?” If you leave pancake syrup or honey unused for several months, and you go back to fetch the bottle, you might find that there is crusty accumulation on the top of the bottle and the contents are no longer usable. Lack of use had formed that crust, that hard material that is no longer useful because it is no longer pliable.  The dream forced to sit idle hardens into an unusable substance of thoughts that have separated themselves from the goals and formed idle destructive thoughts that are crusted over with despair, doubt, anger, and hatred.The second stanza is not a question but merely a “maybe” suggestion:  maybe the dream-goal just sags like trying to carry something heavy.  A heavy load makes one walk slowly, makes one clumsy as he tries to move under the load.  The dream not realized may become heavy to bear, because it still weighs on one’s mind with musings like “what might have been,” “if only,” “I guess I’ll never know,” “the one that got away.” All these useless thoughts that dip back into the past weigh heavy on the mind that has had to defer a dream.  This sagging under a heavy load might lead to depression and mental lethargy.The last stanza returns to the question again, but this time instead of simile, the speaker employs metaphor of an explosion.  What explodes?  Bombs explode and cause great destruction.  If all the other possibilities of a deferred dream are bad with some worse tha
