Gentle autumn

Nguyen Duy Xuan

August

gently touch the old banyan tree in front of the gate

leaves not yet yellow

has trembled from the branch

swaying in the wind

familiar road

turn over in the wind

Milk flower fluttering

quiet coffee shop

in instrumental music

light as breath

August

Sometimes it's just a memory that's hard to name.

take us back to memory lane

afternoon light on mother's shoulder

kite tilted

find the sky of childhood

I entered August

like a wind picker

collect each thin leaf

bring back to weave into a song

for a time long gone

but my heart is restless...

each return
