William Butler Yeats – A Journey of Companioning YOUR Greatness shares a personal journey that the writer has taken in learning to appreciate the blessing and the invitation from W. B. Yeat’s poetry

In appreciation of his poetry I am writing A Journey with Mr Yeats – 10 Poems to Companion YOUR Greatness. This book is written with one clear intention. This is to invite you, the reader, on a journey of companioning YOUR greatness (These are the Clouds).

This book is subtitled 10 Poems to Companion YOUR Greatness. It includes those poems which invite you to live from your deep heart’s core (Lake Isle of Innisfree). Through the invitation from the direct experience of breakthrough you know that in the words of William Butler Yeats, “I am blessed and can bless” (Vacillation IV)

NOTE I have made available two ways of reading this page. There is the scroll down method whereby you simply continue to read by scrolling down the page. Then there is the pages method whereby you view shorter sections of the page and then click on the next page to view the content. I leave the choice up to you.

There are many wonderful William Butler Yeats poems to choose from. I have chosen ten that I feel a deep heart’s core connection with.

From the period beginning February 2019 I will be adding more reflections on each of these ten poems. Each poem will have its own page and related blog posts. This will include: –

• The full text of the poem.
• An audio recording of the poem.
• A video of the reading of the poem (where available)

On each page of the William Butler Yeats poem will be a sidebar which will take you to related poems, songs, quotes and other resources.

In particular there will be related practices. Without committed daily practice or practices there will be no focused journey of Companioning YOUR Greatness
