Thailand, her hands caressing my waist
With her teasing fingers,
Laos, an emotionally vulnerable lover
Her tears washed with corruption.
China, she\'s a woman- putting me in my place;
nurtures me in fearlessly,
yet, she is not familiar with the unknown-
A homebird- not ready to flee the nest.
Vietnam, exhibited a love that I had not yet experienced,
Human touch was not a comparison,
A spiritual affection that renders me breathless .
