YOU are YOUNGER than SPRINGTIME, aren't YOU?

In THAILAND where we are, the heat is unbearable and the civil war is fiercely intense.

All of us are out on a limb, emotionally drained and physically frustrated.

Hoping for a truce soon, we might as well switch subject, lest we go bonkers.

Whilst the incidents of the past few months were ugly, let us embrace the beauty in women for a change.

It’d be so wickedly wonderful to watch sexy nubile women running down the streets naked as cheerleaders to assure us the worse is finally over, and that business is back to normalcy.

Ahhhh …..anyway ….

This is an ODE to BEAUTIFUL WOMEN.

The lilting romantic song from the musical SOUTH PACIFIC says it all.

Listen!

YOU ARE YOUNGER THAN SPRINGTIME.

“I touch your hands
And my heart grows strong,
Like a pair of birds
That burst with song.
My eyes look down
At your lovely face,
And I hold a world
In my embrace.

Younger than springtime, are you
Softer than starlight, are you,
Warmer than winds of June,
Are the gentle lips you gave me.
Gayer than laughter, are you,
Sweeter than music, are you,
Angel and lover, heaven and earth,
Are you to me.

And when your youth
And joy invade my arms,
And fill my heart as now they do,
Then younger than springtime, am I,
Gayer than laughter, am I,
Angel and lover, heaven and earth,
Am I with you!

And when your youth
And joy invade my arms,
And fill my heart as now they do,

Then younger than springtime, am I,
Gayer than laughter, am I,
Angel and lover, heaven and earth,
Am I with you.”

Now we are feeling a lot better.
