Love poems

W. B. Yeats

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

  • 'I have been astonished that men could die martyrs for their religion - I have shudder'd at it. I shudder no more.

    And I could die for that. I could die for you.'
    ~ John Keats
