Altogether Desirable
His mouth is most sweet,
and he is altogether desirable
This is my beloved and this is my friend
- from Song of Solomon
Our love invites us to
leave past hurts and
leap into the present
without hesitation.
He was my teacher--
and then my friend.
Now we are lovers
and I find him
“altogether desirable.”

Author's Note
Love brings interesting poetry from my daughter. Love built on friendship is hard for this mom to argue against. She asked to share the photo of her and the professor in a field close to his home.

Difficult not to be heart warmed by this, noting the way she unfolds the progress of the relationship. (And yes, some pupils have gone on to marry their teachers in later life.)

In that photo the image of your daughter, to me, just looks like it closely resembles the profile photo.
An inattentive observer can easily misidentify the one person for the other.
