Day 145: Song of Solomon 1-4
I like poetry. Words sewn together to form images of something is a beautiful art. And Song of Solomon, it seems to me, is a book of poetry, specifically poetry dedicated to a loved one. Sensual poetry. Sexual poetry. It almost makes me blush reading this book, but then I think about my own marriage and the beauty that comes through the sexual relationship I have with my spouse, and these verses make me smile. For I know the beauty that comes through sex in the marriage relationship, and I'm glad that the Bible acknowledges this, too.
