Kiss of Love
🕑 Added 2021-09-30 07:31:14 +0000 UTCOn such a tranquil night as this,
She woke Endymion with a kiss,
When, sleeping in the grove,
He dreamed not of her love.
Like Dian’s kiss, unasked, unsought,
Love gives itself, but is not bought;
Her voice, nor sound betrays
Its deep, impassioned gaze.
It comes,—the beautiful, the free,
The crown of all humanity,—
In silence and alone
To seek the elected one.
– from a poem by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882)
