He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven (William Butler Yeats)

one of england's most loved poems happens to be one of my favorites too.

He Wishes For The Cloths Of Heaven  

William Butler Yeats

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

On life, on death,
Horseman, pass by!
