Song of Solomon 7:7 (ESV)

7 Your stature is like a palm tree, and your breasts are like its clusters.

As the man in the Song of Songs looks at his wife’s body, he compares her to a palm tree. Then her breasts stand out for him. He may touch them. That may arouse feelings in him that others may not have for his wife. They are solely for him.
