"The Yellow Dress": Poem by Ly Binh Son


I wrote this poem several years back, originally in Vietnamese, under a special circumstance. May our lives be blessed with love.
 
The Yellow Dress

You come to visit in a new dress
Sunny chrysanthemum hue adorning life
Vibrant and youthful, a freeing soul
Helping me forget unsparing tribulations of it all

In view of your beauty, my heart flutters with delight
Welcoming a new day's arrival in places far and wide
Loving you, I'm fond of all your likings
I love your yellow dress too, my darling...
