Love's
Philosophy
--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 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 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?
THAT KISS
IN THE DARK
by Thomas Hardy
Recall it you?
Say you do!
When you went out into the night,
In an impatience that would not wait,
From that lone house in the woodland spot,
And when I, thinking you had gone
for ever and ever from my sight,
Came after, printing a kiss upon
Black Air
In my Despair,
And my two lips lit on your cheek
As you leant silent against a gate,
Making my woman's face flush hot
At what I had done in the dark, unaware
You lingered for me but would not speak;
Yes, kissed you, thinking you were not there!
Recall it you?
Say you do!
