He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven

I realized last night, I first read this poem exactly 50 years ago. It remains a most favorite. Thank you to my early teacher.

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.

- W. B. Yeats
