Excellent piece; another of yarning wools of sorrow
The Cloak, The Boat And The Shoes
‘What do you make so fair and bright?’
‘I make the cloak of Sorrow:
O lovely to see in all men’s sight
Shall be the cloak of Sorrow,
In all men’s sight.’
‘What do you build with sails for flight?’
‘I build a boat for Sorrow:
O swift on the seas all day and night
Saileth the rover Sorrow,
All day and night.’
What do you weave with wool so white?’
‘I weave the shoes of Sorrow:
Soundless shall be the footfall light
In all men’s ears of Sorrow,
Sudden and light.’
by William Butler Yeats

Re: I do not understand the metahpor
Thanks EX TURPI. You will have a good time exploring the origins of the "men of wool"; sometimes also known as "the changed ones". Have fun. And be safe during these coming days. joab

I like the poem. Yet I must confess, I do not understand the metahpor: man of wool. Happy holidays.

Re:
It's always amazing how often the reader can recreate the poem in their own mind, and make it even stronger. Thanks, sam.
