[hometext] => A beautiful song of Love
[bodytext] =>  Her beauty surpassed the most beautiful. Her three brothers saved her from being blameful. Watching over the grape vineyards for her family, became her full time job. All alone, love found her in the gardens, her heartthrob. They lovingly caressed, kissed, betrothed their devotion. From that moment on, her deep heart's love, n'er unfasten! In the vineyards, the noon day sun kissed her already olive skin. Darker beauty still, and her goodness within. This story took place, far removed from me, bygone. In the middle East near, what is now known as Lebanon A huge Temple lined with gold, and it's owner a King. This King lacking not one thing, but he wanted her so badly, his arms were found aching! Their most unique praises of passion could be heard. Speaking of devotion, the language of love, a soft spoken word. He compares her beauty to plants, animals, and precious stones. With over 60 queens and 80 concubines, he bemoans.......... "Look you are beautiful, Oh girl companion of mine. Your eyes are like those of doves behind your veil so fine. Your teeth are like the drove of freshly shorn ewes, that have gone up from washing Your lips are like the scarlet thread, and your speaking is a blessing." "But Your honorable Sir, Dear King, I love another. A black girl am I, comely, I love a Shepherd boy, after. He speaks of me as a low saffron, a lily among weeds. All night I dream about my lover, and finding him, for his loves exceeds!" The King then offers her gold circlets of gold. Also silver studs among her hair , and around her neck, beads you will behold. Then he invites her into his inner chambers, "Look you are beautiful my dear one, you are beautiful, also pleasant, my divan of dreamers.....Is this not so?" Then her Shepherd boy returns, and devotedly tells her of his love for his bride, "Your two breasts are young ones, like the twins of a female gazelle. Until the day breathes, and the shadows have fled. I shall go up my way to the mountain of myrrh and to the hill of frankincense to dwell! You have made my heart beat, Oh sister my bride......... How much better your expressions of endearment are, than that of wine. The fragrance of your oils better than perfume, divine!" "With comb honey, your lips keep dripping, Oh my bride, honey and milk are under your tongue, and the fragrance of your garments is like the fragrance of Lebanon! A garden barred in, a spring sealed up. Your skin is a paradise of pomegranates with choicest of fruits, that I may sup." She continues to turn down the Kings advances, because of her devotion to her beloved Shepherd boy.... She laments, "My dear one is dazzling, and ruddy, the most conspcious of ten thousand, my joy! His head is gold like refined gold, and his hair, the locks, are like date clusters. His eyes are like doves beside channels of water, which are bathing themselves in milk, sitting within the rims of pleasures!" She continues to speak of her beloved.... "I have placed a seal upon my heart, upon on my own arm, For I will grant him exclusive devotion through any harm! Many waters themselves cannot distinquish true love, nor can rivers wash it away! If a man would give all of his valuable things of his house for love, people would hate them to this day!" She continues to take her stand and remains loyal and faithful to the end. The King finally realizes it is to no avail, so she,away he would send. Then her Shepherd Boy once again says, "Run away my dear one and make yourself like a Gazelle upon the mountain of spices! The King sends her away with this message, "Go to your beautiful lover, be with him, the one that entices!" If you were offered all the gold and silver in the whole world, And the love of a beautiful young King like Soloman, unfurled......... Could you resist the temptations he used to draw her to his bosom? Her loving devotion to the end enhances the beauty of this poem, It's known as the "Book of Soloman" taken from the Bible. "The next time you to read this Superlative Song of Solomon..... Remember that the little dark girl is pictured as God's faithful people.....and the Sun is pictured as God that wams her, and helps her stay faithful. The shepherd boy is Christ Jesus, the son of God, And the King is pictured as the worldly enticements that can draw us away from the love and devotion we must have our God! "It's a most passionate book of love, in fact, it can actually be called a very endearing song of love, read it some day, I know you will enjoy it!:" Created by Cheri Cam LeBren February 2004 "Always remain loyal, and faithful to your dearest love!"
