Song of Songs 1 - 8 (2nd June) - Sylvia

Basically the book of Song of Songs is about songs and poems that talk about love and courtship

Lover refers to the male speaker

Beloved refers to the female

Friends refer to other people who speak.

Interestingly, the following verse appears thrice in the book of Song of Solomon: (2:7, 3:5 and 8:4)

"Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you; Do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires"

I believe for us ladies, its very applicable to us, especially those of us who are at that age of crushes etc.. where we tend to fall in "love" easily.

Lets be reminded of this verse so as to guard our hearts, save it for THE one which God has in mind =)

Guys.. you all can take a leaf from Song of Solomon to woo your future girlfriends with the beautiful poetic words and songs.. haha
