To the Questioner,
Shlomo Hamelech was gifted with great knowledge - even greater than that of his father David - as a special present from Hashem.
Part of the greatness of this wisdom was his ability to give appropriate parables (meshalim) [Melachim Alef 5-11,12]
In Shir Hashirim Shlomo Hamelech is not singing praise to Hashem as in Tehillim, but rather trying to teach us the intense reality of love that Hashem has for us - and the only way for us to really understand that level of experience is through the appropriate experience that we can relate to in our lives
Part of Shlomo Hamelech's greatness in Shir Hashirim was that he was able to include a whole spectrum of the relationship between Hashem and the Jewish people for all of time (Zohar Shmos 144a), and was able to locate the appropriate mashal for each and every particular situation throughout history zya"a.
With Blessing,
Rav Nachum
