A Man Philosophy Poem by Nero CaroZiv

Once a young, impetuous lad stood before me
And thus he drew a world for me to see
'The fountains send their rivulets to mingle with the roaring river,
And the rivers join with the vast blue ocean;
The winds of the nights mix forever
With a sweet human emotion;
Nothing in the world is by itself, alone and single;
All things by the laws of divine nature
One in another is being mingled
So why not I with lovely maid as you? '



'Tut! these ideas I totally deny' To him I replied
'Don't the rivulets in the high mountains chose their rivers?
And the winds sometimes are too rough to the human emotion!
And all things by laws of nature chose their parterner to mingle
So why should I mingle with you? '




The stubborn lad did not hesitate; encouraged he continued:
'See love, the mountains kiss the high heaven,
And the waves of the ocean clasp one another;
No budding wild flower in the field could be forgiven
If it disdained its neighbor or its brother;
And the sunlight clasps and endorse the earth,
And the moonbeams in the sheen of the night kisses the sea;
What are all these kissings worth,
If you will kiss not me? '



'All these things I totally denounce' To him I replied
'The high heaven do woo the mountains top
The waves of the vast sea do each other encourage and strengthen
And the host of wild flowers in the field do support each other
From hawling winds and tramping rain
What have you done for me
That I should kiss thee? '
