Thread of Sunlight, Unsteady

                       Picture: Nguyễn Tiến Dũng

One day, a thread of sunlight wanders, soaked along the bare trees
On days where the truth blends with illusion

The thread of light shatters, bathing new dreams
The turn of a body calling out the seeds of love
The lost thread of sunlight, counting time down the streets
