From the Bible

What does God have to say about getting in the mood? One biblical wife we know well is the woman in the Song of Solomon. One thing she does is describe–in detail–the physical attributes of her husband.

My lover is dark and dazzling, better than ten thousand others!
His head is finest gold, his wavy hair is black as a raven.
His eyes sparkle like doves beside springs of water;
they are set like jewels washed in milk.
His cheeks are like gardens of spices giving off fragrance.
His lips are like lilies, perfumed with myrrh.
His arms are like rounded bars of gold, set with beryl.
His body is like bright ivory, glowing with lapis lazuli.
His legs are like marble pillars set in sockets of finest gold.
His posture is stately, like the noble cedars of Lebanon.
His mouth is sweetness itself; he is desirable in every way.
Such, O women of Jerusalem,  is my lover, my friend.

Song of Solomon 5:10-16 {NLT}
