As the lily among thorns,so is my love among the daughters. As the
apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the
sons. I sat down under his shadow with great delight, and his fruit
was sweet to my taste. Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal
upon thine arm: for love is strong as death; jealousy is cruel as
the grave: the coals thereof are coals of fire, which hath a most
vehement flame. Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the
floods drown it: if a man would give all the substance of his house
for love, it would utterly be contemned.
(excerpts from Song of Solomon)
Feel free to read some of the poetry we have written for each other over the years...
This bundle, tied with yellow ribbon, contains poems he wrote for me...
He keeps the poems I wrote for him in this wooden chest.
