Happy New Year - Poem by Bach My

Illustration: Van Nguyen

Hello New Year, tears from the sky filled the forest
Oh the rain breaks my heart
Flowers give us the season of absence
The eyes of the forest have just closed in the misty night

Hello New Year, the inchworm bends over old hair
Fireworks explode to welcome Tet
How many children did mother see off across the river on the 30th afternoon?
The new moon anchors forever in the forest of memories.

Hello New Year! We walk on the path of chirping birds and howling gibbons.
The winds mark the journey
Spring recedes into a cloudy roof
We don't know what to do with our age on earth.

Hello New Year, the road of classified footsteps
The figure trudged home carrying dust
Go forever but never reach the mountain
Only see the deep river quietly stretching out

The bird does not have enough strength to fly back to the old days.
Ripe guava on the tree
Afternoon on the hill
But the one-way flight was tiring.

The guava in the old garden ripens every day.
The moon has risen, the sun has set
Flowers sent in the season of absence
Hello New Year, the forest eyes closed the misty night.
