Intensely romantic, Love's Philosophy by Percy Bysshe Shelley is one to pull on the heartstrings. Love's Philosophy would make a fantastic choice as a wedding ceremony reading directly from either bride or groom to the other. Prepare to make your partner swoon.

Love's Philosophy by 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 another's being mingle:-
Why not I with thine?

See! the mountains kiss high heaven,
And the waves clasp one another;
Now 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 kissing's worth,
If thou kiss not me?
