WORN LIKE A BLANKET
(Written in imitation of the Song of Solomon's style.)
I wear my Beloved like a blanket, as I lie upon my bed.
His arms encircle me and I hold him close to me.
His warmth is closer and hotter than that of the cover, between my legs he is entangled.
He is my bed rock, security personified.
God said to Eve: “Your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you.”:My desire is for my Beloved, and he is all over me.
He rubs harmoniously on my skin, every part of me, until I have to take him inside,
To staunch the fountain that wells up from within me,
When he and I will be one, and the whole earth moves as if urging us on.

When he and I will be one, and the whole earth moves as if urging us on.

Very sexy and lovely write, Solomon! To wear a beloved as a blanket is a strong image. You can cover yourself, feel warm and secured.
This poem arose out of a student howler (garbled mis-statements or misspellings or misquotes children especially may make in essays) that may be waiting to happen, but which came to my mind: "Your desire shall be for your husband and he shall be all over you." That brought on the image of the blanket.

To be a blanket for someone, to protect and love him and make him comfortable ... that'll be a desirable goal in life.
