	It' beautiful, Ann, isn't it. I 'did' Yeats for A level English decades ago and it really stuck with me. 5 or 6 years ago I was in Ireland with my family and we went to Yeats Tower in Galway - and I was really overcome with emotion! How silly! But having loved all his writing I found myself in tears at being at the place where he lived and wrote. Needless to say hubby and the kids were snorting with laughter, the soulless so-and-sos.... No. I haven't received a single photo so come on, ladies....PS where are the gents in this group???? By the way, I was naive when I thought I could comment on all your work on the same day, I am drowning in prose and poetry!! I have replied to 4 people, I think, and am on a mission to finish the rest. Don't you all sleep??? I wrote one piece then stopped....Just wait until next time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Is that enough exclamation marks?

	Hi Helen, when you find a photo you e mail it to each of us. I assume you have not had our photos as yet either is that right? I can't remember if you joined after we sent them out. Lovely verse that isn't it? And the last two lines are often quoted.

	I am just ploughing through all the posts on this thread to get to know you all better. I am really excited about our writing group! Photos. Where do we send them or do we send them around to each member? Don't get excited, girls, I haven't found one yet of me that wouldn't curdle your blood but soon the time will come.... what shall I do with it???? Treading on dreams. Who raised this? It is a quote from WB Yeats, my favourite poet, so I was interested. 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
