As a weed beneath the ocean, <br />As a pool beneath a tree <br />Answers with each breath or motion <br />An imperious mastery; <br /> <br />So my spirit swift with passion <br />Finds in every look a sign, <br />Catching in some wondrous fashion <br />Every mood that governs thine. <br /> <br />In a moment it will borrow, <br />Flashing in a gusty train, <br />Laughter and desire and sorrow <br />Anger and delight and pain.<br /><br />Archibald Lampman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/passion-122/
