Song of Songs or Song of Solomon 7 : 1 - 9
How gracful are your feet in
sandals,
O queenly Maiden!
Your rounded thighs are like jewels,
the work of a master hand.
Your navel is a rounded bowl
that never lacks mixed wine.
Your belly is a heap of wheat,
encircled with lilies.
Your two breasts are like two fawns,
twins of a gazelle.
Your neck is like an ivory tower.
Your eyes are pools in heshbon,
by the gate of Bath-rab'bim.
Your nose is like a tower of
Lebanon,
overlooking Damascus.
Your head crowns you like Carmel,
and your flowing locks are like
purple;
a king is held captive in the
tresses.
How fair and pleasent you are,
O loved one, delectable maiden!
You are stately as a palm tree
and your breasts are like its
clusters.
I say I will climb the palm tree
and lay hold of its braches.
Oh, may your breasts be like
clusters of the vine,
and the scent of your breath like
apples,
and your kisses like the best wine
that goes down smoothly,
gliding over lips and teeth.
and i didn't think my bible study class would be interesting....
And on a second note, would that be a cool thing to memorize and say back in an intimate moment... well... as long as the girl liked palm trees..... and she was into that sorta thing....
