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 feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
William Butler Yeats

Great poem, Lady J!
Yes, it is! It reminded me of this one, by Lord Byron:
She Walks In Beauty by Lord Byron
She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes:
Thus mellowed to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impaired the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress,
Or softly lightens o'er her face;
Where thoughts serenely sweet express
How pure, how dear their dwelling place.
And on that cheek, and o'er that brow,
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints that glow,
But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind at peace with all below,
A heart whose love is innocent!

Can't thank you enough for all these lovely posts you've been making, Conor. Beautiful pictures, wonderful poets & poems!
To: Billie
You know what? I thought it looked like one of yours but as I went on down and started reading other's posts, I realized it was yours. When I answered to Amy, I checked all over that graphic for your name and didn't find it until I went back later and squinched my eyes and barely saw your name. I did notice the little music prompter looked like what you post. I guess there's just those days. (I shoulda had a V-8)(smack)! At least you knew how WELL I did like it! And I will just use your little bird to emphasize it!
