Reverie Revelry Reveille

For some unknown reason these words are spinning in my head and I need to get them down on paper for clarity. They don't come smoothly out of my mouth. No doubt I will torture those I love by using these somewhat obscure words frequently and inexplicably the next few days.

Reverie - a state of dreamy meditation - "I'm lost in reverie."

Revelry - boisterous festivity - "Their revelry could be heard across the river."

Reveille - a signal to arise, commonly by an army bugle-  "He went to sleep early so he'd be ready for reveille."
