Many Waters

Your name is like running water in the desert,
Like a forest stream flowing strong and steady,
Like the finest oils poured out lavishly,
Like carefully sought herbs and spices lovingly applied.
My heart will continually pursue you, for you are my only
desire
And I will continually rejoice in you.
Your beauty and grace are stunning and I am enraptured.
You are a delicate and refined flower
Elegant and worthy of the highest honor.
Your presence lights up the evening
And kisses every new day.
Time has blessed and adored you
With unfailing kisses and affection.
You are beautiful beyond compare.
My heart surely loves and adores you
And longs patiently to be refreshed in your presence.
If I should compare you to others
They would surely make haste to flee away.
Sustain me with your affection
For I would see your face, and hear your voice;
Your voice is sweet and enchanting,
and your beauty is like a skillfully painted canvas
Caressing brilliant colors,
And I cannot look away.
You are perfect my Love
And with one glance of your eyes
I am taken and forever devoted.
I long for the scent of your perfumes
And the touch of your hand.
