W.B. Yeats quote #461 from The Wind Among the Reeds 1899

Had I the heavens embroidered clothsEnwrought with golden and silver lightThe blue and the dim and the dark clothsOf night and light and the half lightI would spread the cloths under your feetBut I being poor have only my dreamsI have spread my dreams under your feetTread softly because you tread on my dreams.
