a Word of Poetry.

So lately im randomly obsessed with this poem,
And well ...just Poetry in general.
Thought I'd share :)


"Aedh Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven"
 by William Butler Yeats. 
From The Wind Among the Reeds Volume 3, 1899.

Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half light,

I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
