White Mountains

The White Mountains stand upright
Touching the clear blue sky
Fresh cool air for breathing
In the Freedom land for living

In contrast to the year-round green
Of my motherland's scene
Greenish Mountains in winter
On the bank of the Mekong River

The Pink Lotus

Blooming under the sun and wind 
Displaying lovely pink petals 
Adorning muddy, stinking water
 
What a fantastic life! 
Flowers bloom upright 
Drink the murky water 
Have the wind and sun freely 
The soft nuts are yummy

The man's native family 
Cannot define a destiny 
Pink Lotus gave us a lesson 
Grow up in a stinky water 
The old home of ancestors 

Blooming under the sun and wind 
Displaying lovely pink petals 
Adorning muddy, stinking water

Pink lotus rises proudly 
Fragrance and beauty
Stand tall with courage 
Changed lives from misery 
Strike high for victory

Since I Am Alive

Since I do have both eyes
Let me admire the world: 
Its lines, lights and colors. 
I will watch over the world leaders, 
How did they come into power?
Find out the fate of their followers!

Since I do have a mouth
Let me eat and speak out.
I will talk about the leader’s corruption;
Compare with the people’s living condition!

Since I do have both ears
Let me hear the human and nature songs.
I will heed the leader’s dictating; 
Listen to people’s weeping and tearing!

Since I am Alive
I wish to watch, to talk and to listen;
I want to savor freedom and human rights.  
Let me choose the leader that I delight!

For a Lady Friend

The destiny pulled me 
Away from a matrimony,
Luckily, our friendship survived.
Thousand girls passed by my life,
Left thousand dreams flourished
In the garden of melancholy
To craft the broken heart poetry:
My love is like a fruit tree.

Your shape, your smile,
And your friendly eyes
Revived on thousand wallpapers;
Induced my ink as the endless river;
Sweet words floated on the rainy days
And lemony lyrics on dried.  
Our love story made my pen cried
In the torrent of days and nights.

On my fluky walkway
The love flowers never decay.
The perfume poetry spread along,
You helped me to put pretty songs,
From a humble, honest heart,
To delight world’s feast days.   
Your sweet voice ever stays
In my artistry bouquet.

Like roses encircled by bees
Ever though your figure adhered me.
Lonely  at night, I admire the sky,
The flashing stars of your smiles,
Encouraged my dreaming
 On the long road of the literacy,
You shared a favor authority
By letting your mind escorted me.

Our hearts united gratefully,
Forever in our souls remain friendly.   
You’re the lady, who changed my life,
The profound power of my mind.
Refilled my pen with your soul-ink,
The multicolored ink for artistry:
The outpouring in my poetry. 
You signed your name for eternity.

Nostalgic Mood

Faraway from my motherland
Blend with the alien bands
I feel sad and lonely
My native language flees 

In different horizon I stay
The sorrow stings nights and days
With dull and deaden sense
My homesick is immense

In a strange space I stay
Think to the birth-land faraway
The sweet voice of my mother
Echoes in my heart over and over

The Small Bird's Nest

Small birds use dry grass
To build their nest 
With perseverance  
They've done their best 
Small shade protects  
Rain, wind and sunlight 
Easily live material life, 
Happiness is in the mind

River of Love

The river flows in a one way ticket
Drew memory of the dreaming man
Followed water level like a picket
In the rainy season, the water spans

Water becomes shallow in summer
He recollects his long loving days
Spent in the sweet and sour clutters
Finally, like the river she went away

He believed relationship was durable
The family bind lacked the continuity
The seasonal water to be comparable

River and love passed by definitely
His heart fulfilled by self-compassion
Living will never be full of perfection

Water Drop On Lotus Leaf

Rain drops onto the lotus leaf
Builds up a crystal clear pearl
The Breeze rocks and whirls
Non-eternity life bears grief

Mountain Stream

Listen to the stream hits the rocky bed
Competing the sound of insect spreads
The spring wind swings conifer trees
In the valley composed a soft melody

The sound of greenish tops hit by water
Up and down like the heart pulse meter
Refreshes a cool and clean surrounding
On the downhill sounds the whistling 

Life of the stream couldn’t consider
Just moved on by the natural manner
Like a lonely man travels to somewhere 
An upcoming event couldn’t be aware   

Here and now displays a lovely scene
The heart beats delight in neat green 
The future of the stream is uncertain
Actual happiness, here on the mountain

The Last Whisky

One last shot 
And the bottle will be empty
The aroma and taste
Are superb like crazy
Far away, now you are,
In this melancholic night 
Do you drop me like 
The last whisky's bye?
