A timeless poem of dreams, vulnerability, and devotion.
W. B. Yeats’ beloved The Cloths of Heaven is one of the most moving declarations of love in literary history. Simple yet profound, this typewriter-style art print captures the ache of offering your whole heart — and the quiet power of asking it be held with care.
Full Poem:
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.
A minimalist design printed in a vintage typewriter font — available in black, white, or aged-style background — perfect for literary lovers, wedding gifts, or poetic home décor.
