Audible sound of farmyard animal close by makes one more dreamy (7)
I believe the answer is:
moonier
'more dreamy' is the definition.
('moony' can be a synonym of 'dreamy')
'audible sound of farmyard animal close by makes one' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'sound' could be 'moo' (moo is a kind of sound) and 'moo' is present in the answer.
'one' could be 'i' (Roman numeral) and 'i' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
I've seen this clue in The Times.
