Valentine's Day was a fortnight ago, so this is a little out for that celebration, but nonetheless it's romantic, explicit and useful. From Song of Songs, it's one of the most intimate parts of the Bible:

It's quite graphic, and gives us a glimpse of the tenderness and respect God intends there to be in our intimate relationships. It contrasts massively with the worlds view of sex, which seems to be "grab it at every opportunity", and often has no care for the outcome.
God gave sex as a gift, and gave us guidelines how to best use and enjoy it; lovingly, caringly, tendererly, and in the intimacy of a husband and wife relationship. Read, reflect, pray.
