Phong Le Dream (*) - Poem by Che Diem Tram

illustration: tuan anh

In the dream, Phong Le radiated a halo

With Chien Dan, Khuong My, Bang An, the light is everywhere

My Son, Tra Kieu, Dong Duong, Da Nang

The Lion City echoes in the small country of Amaravati

The ancient Phong Le reflects the smooth green Cam Le river

The sacred hole is still here, the vestiges of the majestic thousand-year-old ancient tower cluster

Tower on the hill - magnificent linga and yoni

The sacred river exalts the peaceful genitals

The constant calls of Phong Le's love

Where there is Cham there are towers

The row of broken bricks evokes the flow of time in warm brown tones.

Green grass spread across the space of Ly Chau once

People of the same ethnicity take each other to Cham Ancient Temple

Shiva dances there Phong Le gallery

The linga pillar is still here, intact and full of life.

The creativity of a thousand years seems to speak out resoundingly...
