Feelings about Uncle Ho of poets in Tram land

In the May issue of Nha Trang Magazine that has just been released, we see poems about Uncle Ho with quite subtle perspectives and feelings. Poet Vo Hoang Nam feels about Uncle Ho in relation to the people to write the poem " Uncle only sees himself as a grain of sand" . Through that, the author has partly expressed Uncle Ho's feelings and thoughts towards the people: "Throughout his life of seventy-nine springs/Uncle always thinks about the people, cares for all the people/Uncle's love for the people is as vast as the ocean/Wants the country to be unified, the people to be peaceful..." . As for author Nguyen Dai Duyen, he expressed his feelings for Uncle Ho by recording his feelings after a time of "Visiting Uncle Ho's hometown". There, the author not only sees the familiar, simple scenery where Uncle Ho was born, but also grows up in the love of his family and neighbors. Each row of areca trees, roofs of houses, lotus ponds, rice fields... today all remind him of Uncle Ho's childhood days. “I return to Uncle Ho’s hometown, Sen village/The green tea rows are familiar at the entrance/The areca rows in front of the gate wave goodbye/Here is still the hammock with sweet lullabies…”. From the scenery in Uncle Ho’s hometown today, it has given the author a clearer sense of the origin of Uncle Ho’s ideals and actions on the revolutionary path. “For the people, for the Party, my whole life/Warm verses to send off those who have gone far away/The shining star of the Father/The love for the country is as immense as the love for the people”.

“Uncle Ho - He is the most passionate love, in the hearts of the people and in the hearts of humanity” (Thuan Yen), so it is easy to understand why Vietnamese poets in the past, present and future always dedicate their most beautiful feelings and verses to write about Uncle Ho. Although each person's talent, perspective and poetic feelings are different, they all meet in the love and pride for Uncle Ho - a great leader of the nation, a person who devoted and sacrificed his entire life for the most noble ideals for the country and the people. Continuing the poetic emotions about Uncle Ho of previous generations of poets, the team of poets in Tram land today always try to explore and express poetic emotions about Uncle Ho. Thereby, contributing to enriching the treasure trove of poetry on the subject of Uncle Ho to become fuller, richer, more diverse, but also very specific. For example, poet Hoang Bich Ha expressed her feelings about Uncle Ho in the aspect of "Uncle Ho's love for the people" with verses such as: " In the myriad of Uncle Ho's love/I am deeply moved by Uncle Ho's love for the people/A noble but very closepresident /Uncle lives simply in a cool stilt house... ". As for author Hoai Khanh, after visiting the room where "Uncle Ho wrote the Declaration", he could not hide his emotions, as well as his imagination of the days when Uncle Ho sat here to write the words affirming the mindset of millions of Vietnamese people. “A room filled with the autumn wind of Hanoi/In the house at 48 Hang Ngang street/The person in the brown shirt just recovered from a bout of malaria/His bright eyes turned the page of history… All people are equal when they are born/With the right to live, the right to freedom and the pursuit of happiness/The August uprising revived the nation/The world map bears the name of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam… The country has repeatedly affirmed its sovereignty /Now Ho Chi Minh writes the Declaration of Independence/So that one morning Ba Dinh cheers with his voice/Tens of millions of compatriots swear to uphold Freedom…”.

Uncle Ho is the embodiment of beauty, because he lived a revolutionary life for the country and the people. From the day the country was still in the dark night of slavery and misery, the young man Nguyen Tat Thanh left alone to find a way to save the country. During the 30-year journey abroad to find the light of national liberation, Uncle Ho did not hesitate to face difficulties and dangers for himself, all for the sole ideal of national independence and freedom for the people. In the spring of 1941, the mountains and forests of Viet Bac happily welcomed Uncle Ho's return, and from then on, the Vietnamese revolutionary movement under his leadership went from one victory to another. Until the last days of his life, Uncle still devoted all his love and concern to the country and the people. His last words of testament further illuminated his ideals and warm love. Author Vo Hoang Nam in the poem "Reading Uncle Ho's will" wrote: "On Uncle Ho's chest there are no medals or awards/But in his heart there is a great nation/Uncle has gone far away but his moral ideology remains forever/For all generations of Vietnam to learn and follow him".

On the occasion of the 135th anniversary of Uncle Ho's birthday, re-reading the poems written about Uncle Ho by Khanh Hoa poets, we can see that the feelings of today's generation are still intact with immense love for Uncle Ho. Those poems are sincere feelings, concrete expressions of the feelings of today's people towards their beloved Uncle Ho.
