NPM #9 – Aedh Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven
April 9, 2016
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.

One of my favorites!
Mine too! I learned it for a play we put on during a high school trip to Ireland.
