| Bishop Mike McKee shared these words this week at a meeting of North Texas Conference of The United Methodist Church ministers. My Bishop loves Yates! The sentiment below is worthy of consideration in a number of contexts. 
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. |
W.B. Yeats (1865–1939)"He Wishes For the Cloths of Heaven"
from the Collected Works of W.B. Yeats |
