 “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.” - William Butler Yeats (1865-1939) The Wind Among the Reeds, 1899, He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven - Irish poet, playwright & mystic, leader of Irish literary revival, Nobel prize 1923.
