These words hit home for me

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.
-- William Butler Yeats

Hi,

This is just a calling card to say I've read your blog (or at least a little) via BlogExlposion. I hate the fact that you can win credits to view peoples sites, and people just click right through it.

And on top of all that, you're a fellow South African. Is there any chance you have a copy of the "Blue Lady" image in a larger size. My Desktop is 1400X1050 and I really dig the pic.

Thanks for the read,
James
