A Kiss Poem by John Boyle O'Reilly

A Kiss

Rating: 2.9


LOVE is a plant with double root,
And of strange, elastic power:
Men's minds are divided in naming the fruit,
But a kiss is only the flower.

Lovely articulation of thoughts about love as a plant rooted to give us its flowers and fruits. Thanks.
