Love's Philosophy by Percy Bysshe Shelley

12/10/12

Love's Philosophy

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 spirit meet and 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 it's brother; 
And the sunlight clasps the earth:
And the moonbeams kiss the sea
What is all this sweet work worth 
If thou kiss not me?
