Today’s poem by William Butler Yeats reflects tender vulnerability—offering dreams instead of riches, and asking for gentle footsteps on what’s most precious.
Today's poem for June 4, 2026, is "Aedh Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven" by William Butler Yeats. 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. It is a small poem, but it makes vulnerability feel immense: love offered not as grandeur, but as trust.
