Thoughts for this were taken from the Song of Solomon...So I give credit to "that".... these are my thoughts....on how I read the verses.... You have placed your house Upon a tower Built your windows pointing Sea bound, filled each With wisdom, desire Drunken lips of perfect Wine I, myself, would seek him Until the break of day, Until the mountains shed Their shadows Until the fields of lilies Wither and seek rain Until gardens no longer Seek the soils Harvesting fruits To lay among my tongue Ravish my heart Be a gentle pillar Of strength Place not a seal on thy heart Embrace my soul Let water quench Thy love Cause me to hear your Desire ~~~~ Step through the barrier of my mind, enter my soul, feel my desire, let my eyes guide you into the shadows of my heart [This message has been edited by Greeneyes (02-03-2002 07:49 PM).] |

A very lovely reflection from a very lovely lady. I'm sure in all of King Solomon's wisdom should he be alive today, you would be a perfect candidate for Queen. Thank you for sharing this beautiful poem. -Silver Streak Sharing God's Love through perfectlovepoetry.com |

This is so beautiful, Lauren...that I am at a loss for words....and I am hardly EVER at a loss for words...its just that this poem is so gorgeous and so very special that there are no words which can do it justice, so I will just have to send you King Solomon, himself!

Exquisite words, my vision of Solomon is more on the justice that pervaded his reign..he must have had that romantic side hidden well within the castle walls |

This is beautiful, Greeneyes! *S* Just yesterday, I was talking with a friend who's trying to read the Bible and was bogged down in begats. *G* I told her to try the New Testament, Psalms, or Song of Solomon... if I send this poem, I can guess what her choice will be. *S* Lovely write! |
