First Love, and Song of Solomon

First Love, and Song of Solomon

Love is a gift from God, a diamond

found in the midst of a raging storm

causing the heart to leap

with the joy Solomon found

when he proclaimed, to his maiden

(show me your face,
let me hear your voice;
for your voice is sweet,
and your face is lovely.)

We, sacks of water, quicken

while the soul glows, verbose,

naked, unashamedly

bathing in the light of true liberty

sharing pleasure without guilt,

rose peddle smiles

apple scented lips.

Mutual, perfumed adoration

pouring like an endless brook

Longing and pain, retreating;

broken and defeated, taken

back to its' familiar resting places

to wither away--forsaken

and words alone,

can never tell the measure, of its` worth

so, count it all joy

-an unmerited favor, bestowed

hey, Sparrowsong, nice comment, good biblical referenceย text, and yes `that Solomon` lol, ย was asked by my church to write and present a poem on first love, so I came up with this one, and being the generous person that I am, I decided to share;... humility just oozes out my pores sometimes, I`m only kidding, no hate mail lol....thanks again for comment, Sparrowsong...

lol, thanks, sis,ย I really try not to be cynical, not easy for me....hey, your comments I enjoy, you really say something with them, encouragement is lovely but truly I don`t need or want that sort of cursory pat on the back, I am not a novice, I already know what I can do..... so when I see a comment from the premiere poet, I feel honoured that you take the time....this poem I recited in church a few months back, on the theme of first love, I`m feeling more at ease, with presenting poetry in church, a live audience has no filters, love that....I should really write more so-calledย spiritual poems, I like writing them, such an edifying experience to pick up the bible and focus on better themes, sadly my ego takes meย to dark themes, sometimes, mostly for practice, I lack discipline....yes, you`re right about love feeling no guilt in pleasure, true...thank you a million for amazing comment....cheers, sis ย
