“Love’s Philosophy”
by Percy Bysshe Shelley
The fountains mingle with the river,
And the rivers with the ocean;
The winds of heaven mix forever
With a sweet emotion;
Nothing in the world is single;
All things by a law divine
In another’s being mingle–
Why not I with thine?
See, the mountains kiss high heaven,
And the waves clasp one another;
No sister flower could be forgiven
If it disdained its brother;
And the sunlight clasps the earth,
And the moonbeams kiss the sea;–
What are all these kissings worth,
If thou kiss not me?

Thanks, for taking the time to write romantic poetry, such powerful words and natural beauty of the human spirit and the earth’s sun and moon resonate love in action.
I have become excited in the art of poetry and hope to never again overlook the beauty of these written words.
