Poetry - Antonio Machado

There's something about this time of year that makes me want to post poetry here. I was fortunate to find this video featuring a poem by Antonio Machado, as read by none other than Robert Bly, titled Last Night as I was Sleeping.

Some YouTube commenters took issue with the translation from the Spanish, especially the phrase, "marvelous error," which perhaps would be better translated as "illusion" or "vision." But the heart of the poem is there, I think, and it all works together (images, music, narration) quite beautifully.
