Poems

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 one another's being mingle:--
...Why not I with thine?

See! the mountains kiss high heaven,
...And the waves clasp one another;
No sister flower would 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?

.....Love's Philosophy
by Percy Bysshe Shelley (1772-1822)
