The Goddess

\nShe put on a new bikini, made of sunshine, stamps and string.
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 With a smile that said “hello boys, look at me!”
\nHer blonde hair, tucked in a sunhat, wasn’t hiding anything,
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 She’s a girl from Ipanema on a spree
\nEvery day he saw her passing and he sighed a deeper sigh,
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 As the goddess of his daydreams walked on by.<\/p>\n
She would laugh with volleyballers who hung fire to let her through
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Trampoliners lost the rhythms of the bounce
\nTook an ice-cream from the vendor when he popped up right on cue
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 But he knew she hadn’t gained a single ounce
\nEvery day she sashayed past him and she didn’t see him sigh
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Just a goddess in a daydream walking by<\/p>\n
She pushed off a young Adonis with a giggle and a grin
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Wasn’t swayed by Mr Muscles in a pose
\nBlew some kisses at a swimmer she distracted diving in
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 As he tried to clear the water from his nose
\nEveryday he watched her antics uncontented with a sigh
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 While the goddess from his daydreams passed him by<\/p>\n
In the aircraft flying homeward she sits smiling at the clouds,
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Drinking vodka topped with brandy, duty free.
\nDreaming dreams of all the heartbreaks she provoked amongst the crowds
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Of the foolish hopeful men who came to see.
\nWhile he contemplates the memories of the weeks that just past by,
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 And the goddess that he married gives a sigh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
