Honour I dream about (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

admire

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'honour' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are verbs in their base form, I can't understand how one could define the other.

'i dream about' is the wordplay.
'about' indicates anagramming the letters.
'i'+'dream'='idream'
'idream' with letters rearranged gives 'ADMIRE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for admire that I've seen before include "Have high regard for, think well of" , "Respect (someone)" , "like very much" , "Have respect for, esteem" , "Respect greatly" .)
