"Thefountainsmingle with the river and the rivers withthe ocean

The winds of heaven mix forever, with a sweet emotion

Nothing in the world is single; all things by law divine

In one another's being mingle why not I with thine?

See! The mountains kiss high the 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 moon beams kiss the sea: what are all these kissings worth, if thou kiss not me?"

-"Love's Philosophy" by Percy Shelley
