    This is not a poem I have written

    He Wishes For The Cloths of Heaven

    Had I the heaven's embroidered cloths, 
    Enwrought with golden and silver light, 
    The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
    Of the night and the 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.

              William Butler Yeats
