What do you think this poem is about?

I Dreamt A Dream

I dream of the fields,
So large and green,
Of the farmers and the weeds,
Potatoes so big, like never seen.

I dream of a house,
As big as the sea,
A castle, as elegant as the horse,
So warm and cool, for mine it shall be.

I dream of the country,
Of a people bounded in love,
With no colour nor boundary,
Knitted into one like a clove.

I dream of a peace,
Yet unreal,
But in this dream, I find ease,
And for this, I'd rather live in the calm of the surreal.
