Her poems

The Moon boy in the real world

Let’s adventure with the wind
To the top of the heaven visiting the moon
And comforting the Moon boy
He was lonely a thousand years.

When he down to the real world
Female poets…
Queueing to welcome!

An insipid day

The boneless body
Soft like milk
No salt
So insipid…

In the morning meeting with the boneless person
In the afternoon meeting with the no-salt person

Gone a day!…

Then tomorrow
I miss so much
The Ninh river
With smoky afternoons
Then tomorrow
I miss the road
One’s thin figure
At late of the faded sunset
Then tomorrow
I compassionate myself
Life of the poet
The soul of innocent flowers
Then tomorrow
Life pays for poetry
The old homeland
Who’s waiting for me?…
