He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven

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 feed;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams

W B Yeats

Terrific. Nice wispy-threadlike clouds go well with the poem.
Keith O'Brien04-Nov-2008 21:13
Nice subdued colours with interesting cloud formations. The first four lines of the poem are also very appropriate. V
