THANH THANH ___________________________ The humane hearts
After poetess Ngoc-An's
inspiration
From
a far-away hardship-ridden country, A war-ravaged native land sunk in
welter, My people, trying to survive troubled
times, Swallowed resentment to flee and seek
shelter. How many cities there are on the globe, My Vietnamese compatriots are in most
present; Even on the snow-covered high mountain
areas, We, as refugees, willingly accepted,
pleasant. Twenty seven years adrift in this new
country, Many have luckily succeeded getting
homes to own, Creating positions and fame worthy of
being Viet, Though some with their old state into
perils thrown. Twenty seven years, so much favor and
felicity! The US, Germany, France, Canada,
Australia, so on Have so far helped our folks in their
lives with Physical and intellectual comforts to
build upon. As for me... ten years in this foreign
land I have witnessed freedoms, press, human
rights, Civilization, modernization everywhere As hard working, hard studying lead to
heights. Thank you for all of your humane hearts With my genuine rhymes of inmost
laudation. We Vietnamese communities pledge
devotion To lifetime service to every
resettlement nation...
