Today is two years anniversary for APAD. I could find many B-day wishes, but what is more fitting, on this special occasion, than the phrase "To me, fair friend, you never can be oldfrom "Sonnet 104" by the Bard of Avon ?

So to our beloved APAD and all APAD friends, here it is

 



 

Sonnet 104 (with change: Three to Two 微笑)

To me, fair friend, you never can be old,
For as you were when first your eye I ey’d,
Such seems your beauty still.
Two winters cold
Have from the forests shook
two summers’ pride,
Two beauteous springs to yellow autumn turn’d
In process of the seasons have I seen,

Two April perfumes in three hot Junes burn’d,
Since first I saw you fresh, which yet are green.
Ah! yet doth beauty, like a dial-hand,
Steal from his figure and no pace perceiv’d;
So your sweet hue, which methinks still doth stand,
Hath motion, and mine eye may be deceiv’d:
For fear of which, hear this, thou age unbred;
Ere you were born was beauty’s summer dead.


—William Shakespeare (Sorry for editing 汗)
