Garden After the Rain - Poem by Nguyen Duc Phu Tho

ILLUSTRATION: Van Nguyen

The puppies are barking loudly all around here.

in front of the house

specks of light scattered across the canopy of leaves.

Then gold leaf covered the entire pathway.

"Hey baby, where are you?"

The grass is turning green.

It quickly became overwhelming.

the garden, after days of rain and storms.

They are now starting to change clothes.

endless green days

high sky

The grass has turned green.

gardener of the soul

There will be no moment of rest.

Branches of vibrant flowers line the path.

little birds by the fence

sing

carrying a prophecy

Quick steps

look around the garden

The beautiful green landscape, the lake seems to hold its breath.

grass after the rain

sunshine after rain

Come back here, come back here.

longing

under the light

dark slopes

What was the puppy looking so confused about?

suddenly appeared beside him.

panting

- "Hey little one, where have you been?"

"Hey baby, can you hear me?"

new sprouts

begin?"
