Reflection from the swan pair

(CLO) The poem "Thinking from a pair of swans" by journalist and poet Nguyen Hong Vinh tells about the intimate life and love of a pair of white swans with simple verses but evoking a philosophy about human life for readers. Swans are animals, and when the male dies, the female is sad and depressed, refuses to eat for a week, and finally goes far away to follow her husband, showing her loyal love. Humans differ from animals in that they have high level of awareness, know how to think and act according to the laws of nature and society to survive and develop. Yet in the era of market mechanisms, people, due to greed and selfishness, look at others with jealousy, even make up stories to slander and destroy others. From there, the author asks the question: through the story of the pair of swans, who have such a heart, are a little moved?!

The editorial board respectfully introduces this poem:

REFLECTIONS FROM THE SWANS

Since the day of the white swans

Inseparable day and night

With the colorful fish

The lake water never dries up

Unknown in cold winter

The guy suddenly left.

She was moody all week.

Stop eating and drinking immediately!

Like every morning

The owner was shocked to see

She lay motionless.

Follow your husband to the underworld!

The owner stood there dumbfounded.

Tears streamed down her cheeks.

Night comes with a burning nostalgia

Love two loyal animals

Rambling thoughts about the world

Some people hold grudges against each other.

Scrutinize, hate, envy

Sick without a visit?!

The swan love story is still there

Live the full meaning of the years

Hey you who have bad intentions

Thinking about it makes me a little emotional?!

Late Fall 2024

Nguyen Hong Vinh
