The Intimacy of the Song of Songs

The intimacy of the Song of Songs

Sets the Biblical world-stage afire

With the burning of the purest of love affairs

Between G-d and each one of us.

 

At the center of the universe,

It enchants by a symphony

Played on the instruments of words in rhythm

To the heartbeat, pulse and breath of creation.

 

The bridal canopy is set in an Eden,

Always awaiting the onset of eternity.

It is reached when the bond of love

Is recognized, acknowledged and understood,

 

When it is wholly lived in a relationship

Of honour and complete devotion to the union.
