Notes About The Poem

- Song of Solomon In New Suit -

Memories, dust and ashes
- the power of eternity's love and desire
Nothing has changed for thousands of years
  "Love is better than wine"
A bottle of wine contains a lot of philosophy
- free from erotic desire
Let the roots grow in a cedar tree

The Song of Solomon
a ballad ...
of love and longing

With a humble mind
in purity, truth and love
Divine grace -
the power that illuminates the soul
A state of peace that almost is
beyond human understanding

The Song of Solomon
a ballad ...
of love and longing

 
Daughter of Jerusalem,
a beauty of the divine
His heart - like soft chimes
Wrap his beautiful virgin in silk and myrrh
One beautiful passionate love story
A man and a woman become one
Everything is placed in the hands of God
