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 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 is all this sweet work worth, If thou kiss not me?

Hello my treasure,
I don't know where to start, While I was reading your letter I smiled many times after so much time I am writing you this letter. It's difficult to express my emotions, this does not mean I haven't any. I am confused and I think only you can help to understand. Life is a continuous choice and any choice is a risk, but who doesn’t risk, doesn't live! So my answer is yes, my love! Day after day I feel you are so close to me! Pietro
Dear Percy,
I just want to tell you that I appreciate your poem,
Your expectations, but you need to understand
that I have another man in my life…
I don’t want to lose your friendship
Be friends …
Edgar
Dear Percy,
I love so much these words, they are very moving
And I confess you that when I have read this poem
I was crying.
I miss you but with these word we are so close
That all these miles don’t exist.
In two weeks’time we’ll be together,
Like the sunlight and the Earth,
Like the moonbeams and the sea.
We’ll follow the divine law and
We’ll mingle our spirit.
Gaia
