But I, being poor, have only my dreams. I have spread my dreams under your feet. Tread softly, because you tread on my dreams.

| (*) Aedh 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. (The Wind Among the Reeds, 1899) |
