1. Sweet March
Poem: Nguyễn Thư
I dreamily gather the March sunlight
The pure soul spreads its wings in bloom
A bunch of grapefruit flowers greet the breeze
Hair flutters as the clouds gently touch my shoulder
March comes, as beautiful as a dream
Red lips sweetly perfume the air of love
Arms embrace a rosebud in passionate devotion
Shy, innocent moments in the ethereal world
March arrives with the red flowers of the gao tree
Like lighting the fire of deep love, bringing joy
For those far away, the heart’s voice keeps calling
To the shores of love, where we will meet again
March brings promises of loyalty
A golden heart will be entrusted to you
Together we will cross endless mountains
Pure souls bloom, wrapped in warmth and joy
March brings growing memories
Xoan petals fall by the doorstep, painting purple hues
Spring awakens, the first light of love softly glows
In the garden, the flowers smile with blooming buds.


2. March, the Longing
Poem: Kim Phụng
Oh March, why do you quietly stir such longing?
The changing season urges timid buds to sprout
The mộc miên tree wears a red hue, like lipstick
Who ignites the flame that fuels this distant sadness?
Oh March! I wait in silence
The intoxicating scent of xoan flowers fills the air at the village festival
The cold night arrives with the faraway crescent moon
In the breeze, the fragrance of grapefruit blossoms whispers softly.
Oh March! I recall the afternoons spent wandering
At twenty, unaware of the long path ahead
The streets of Hanoi each morning
Where every smile feels warm and cherished.
Oh March! The season’s change brings a soft sun
While birds sing their clear, pure songs
The spring breeze stirs with a wistful breath
Leaving behind the sorrow of absence... memories.


3. The Loyal Purple Xoan
Poem: Nguyễn Thị Hồng Hạnh
In March, the xoan flowers paint the sky purple
The delicate petals sway gently, inviting the sunlight to come.
Each drop of golden sunlight gleams
As it falls with the breeze, spreading across the yard.
In March, the xoan blooms in shades of purple
Small clusters of flowers linger in the mist.
Each slender petal sways, floating
Like a delicate carpet laid across the morning road.
In March, the xoan flowers bring a long purple night
The moon seems lost, drifting in thought, unaware.
The stars still shine, but they seem to wander
While the purple xoan flowers wait in quiet contemplation.
In March, the purple xoan longs with a deep yearning
The one once loved is distant, not yet returned.
In March, the purple xoan fills the countryside sky
It reflects in the memory of a steadfast promise.


4. The Heartfelt Feeling of the Gạo Flower
Poem: Đào Mạnh Thạnh
He returns again with the memories of March
On the old path where the bamboo grove stood
The Gạo tree still bursts with fiery red flowers
Faded petals fall, coloring the road in red
March is here, and the grapefruit flowers still fill the air with their fragrance
The purple Xoan flowers have scattered across the pathways
The scent lingers, drifting through the breeze
Stirring my heart with a rush of longing
March brings the red Gạo flowers, yearning to bloom
On the old path, a girl with a conical hat gathers the breeze
The deep red roses blush on her cheeks
As the sunlight fades, gently drifting away
He returns, caught in the endless memory of longing
The breeze carries bittersweet drops of dew
Heavy steps silently bear the weight of sorrow
Now, only solitude remains as spring fades away
March has come, still brimming with vibrant red
On the old path, broken petals scatter in fragments
The afternoon breeze carries the sound of a sorrowful sigh
I wonder... do you still remember or have you forgotten?


5. Forgetting a Season of Flowers
Poem: Trinh Thanh Hằng
The March sun hangs loosely
As one walks away, missing the ful flowers of the season
Grasping a couple of indifferent breezes
Spreading across the fresh green, setting the blossoms ablaze
A light trace of sweet pollen lingers
As bees circle in the last moments of dusk
The pure white blooms shine brightly
As the intoxicating fragrance of grapefruit floats, waiting
Forgetting a time when dreams were alive
Forgetting the Xoan flowers that have faded, nearly teary
Forgetting the fiery red Gạo flowers, their glow flickering
Forgetting the waves that roll from afar
Forgetting an entire season of flowers
Forgetting the soft memories of March
Forgetting the day the page turned
Forgetting how distant the hazy end of spring now seems
Then, let the dust of worldly life settle
Then, let us fold away this hesitant March
Then, let there be no more seasons of flowers
Then, let life, as it is, feel as though there is no spring.


6. Calling the Fading Away
Poem: Miền Ký Ức
You return to summon the March sun
To dry away the distant, faded memories
Calling the white blooms of the Sưa tree
Calling the hesitant steps of two feet
Calling life as if it were a dream
Suddenly, waking, we cry
The vows have faded
The makeup has lost its color
Melancholy
March spreads the intricate threads of the sky
Clouds still veil the moon's glow
And the soft breeze drifts gently
Here and there
Morning mist
On fragile petals
Weaving into memories
A day
Shattered
Sad like the sound of the lost swan
Calling the season
The season keeps slipping away
March....


7. I Am Still Waiting
Poem: Lan Vương
I am still waiting for the mustard flowers of March
Golden hues swirl in the dusk as memories pour in
The fragments of memories crashing back
The day you left, even breathing seemed to fade
If only I knew that love divides us
Why did I need to seek more
I gather my longing and send half to you
The other half, I keep deep within
In a life full of hardship and turmoil
How could I forget the image of my lost love
Love is vast, yet never enough
And my heart, heavy with sadness, carries the sorrow
The mustard flowers still bloom in the rain
But I know tomorrow, the sky will brighten
I forget to force through the long, gloomy years
And place your image deep in my heart.


8. The Nostalgia of March
Poem: Hương Mrs Le
I went searching for the nostalgia of March
The purple xoan flowers bloomed in front of the gate
The spring season brought with it the village festival and sweet songs of quan họ
Where are you, why didn’t you return as promised?
In March, the purple xoan flowers remind me of a vow
Many memories are still etched in my mind
I know you are far away, restless
Missing a corner of our homeland
For many years, you still hold onto love
Still remembering the home where you and I made promises
The lullaby of our hometown is still alive in my heart
So I build a bridge from my heart to welcome you
In March, our homeland’s trees still bloom
The birds chirp, calling each other to build nests
But do you know how deep my heart aches with longing
Missing a place, wondering where you are?

9. The Scent of Pomelo
Poem: Tony Bui
In March, the pink spring still lingers
Silently, memories swirl as we part
The pomelo flowers bloom white in the yard
The bael tree flowers bloom, heralding the coming of summer
In February, the swallows circle along the dike
The early season's sun welcomes the scent of purple xoan
The camellia drinks the sweet dew of the night
In the garden's corner, the chirping of the chicks
In March, I miss you even more
In your eyes, the fire of passion burns bright
Spring has passed, and I'm left waiting
The changing of seasons magnifies my longing
Thank you, life, for bringing summer with its fragrance
To fulfill dreams, no longer unfinished
I love you, your bright and radiant smile
The scent of pomelo keeps me from wanting to be apart...

10. Remembering the Flowers of March!
Poem: Hoàng Minh Tuấn
March comes, sowing feelings of longing,
Spring in the homeland is at the peak of its beauty,
The bael tree remembers someone with its bright red blossoms,
The magnolia longs for someone, emitting its sweet fragrance!
March arrives with the surge of love,
The pomelo's fragrance fills the air,
Still loyal, the purple xoan flowers line the roads,
Waiting for someone, leaving memories in every step!
The white Sưa flowers confuse the heart,
The path home, waiting under the Ban trees,
Oh March, your memory fills my heart,
How passionate the flowers of March are!
March arrives, bringing an alluring spring color,
Captivating hearts with the brilliance of blooming flowers,
If one day we must part ways,
March flowers... will forever remain in me...


11. March has arrived
Poem: Trần Tuyết Tuyết
March carries the sun far away,
Making the purple xoan flowers bloom and fall,
Someone passing by my gate,
Remember to tilt your shirt, wrapping the words of love.
In the garden, the fragrant milk flowers bloom,
The bael tree lights up the path you walk,
Oh March, what can I say?
Let me give you all the spring from the past.
Sending you my sweet longing,
Sending my bright eyes and warm love,
Sending an extra red heart,
March has arrived, fulfilling the heart's desire!


12. March Memories
Poem: Giọt Mưa Thu
Do you remember, in March, the golden sunshine woven,
Spring arrives, opening up the boundless sky,
The peach buds remain bright, glowing in vibrant colors,
The humble apricot tree by the dreamy window.
March brings graceful verses,
The mộc miên trees bloom, filling the sky with longing,
The harbor of love still seems to owe something,
The fragrant grapefruit scent brushes through the flowing hair.
March arrives, the purple xoan flowers bloom,
Spreading their petals, adding yearning to the heart,
The fragrance of spring fills the air,
The birds chirp, calling for the season to come.
Do you remember, the white flower Sưa-lined path,
The faint sunbeams playing with the breeze,
My heart still keeps its door open for you,
Waiting for your love to weave dreams of passion.
March comes, and we hold hands tightly,
In the spring sky, the scent of sweet honey overflows,
Faintly, we hear someone singing the piano melody,
A moment of longing...
The overwhelming song of love...!!!


13. March and the Red Cotton Flowers
Poem: Phan Thu Hà
Will you come to visit the red cotton flowers in March,
To remember a time of blooming red,
The time when I used to gaze through the window,
And let my soul drift with the sailing clouds.
The red cotton flowers are scattered along the grass path today,
As I hear the gentle murmuring of a sun-drenched dike,
The flowers remain red amidst the empty sky,
Each petal like a spark of sunlight.
In silence, each flower falls,
Carrying with it an unspoken longing,
Like the lips of a young girl,
Kissing the warmth of March.
Will you come back to visit a season of flowers?


14. The Seasons of Eternal Love
Poem by: Sơn Nữ
Spring leaves behind the last flowers of the wind
Sending distant clouds, a hint of fire on the horizon
People from that time forget the unspoken promise
Leaving behind the sorrowful city, with the sun crying farewell
March carries the thin salty fog away
The xoan flowers bloom, stirring memories
Of a time forgotten, yet it rushes back
In the sunset, marking the crossing of seasons
The scattered afternoon, is summer already here?
The Bân dress is woven, fitting the narrow streets
The mộc miên blooms, accompanied by the rustling wind
Bright red, marking an incomplete departure
The city wears out, lost in the long road
The month fades, due to the rain breaking promises
Without a change of heart, the violet flowers of the ban tree still bloom
Unfailing in their loyalty, writing poems of love.


15. Remembering the Bloom of the Xoan Flower
Poem by: Thanh Tâm
March is here, my dear sister!
The Xoan flowers bloom, painting the sky with memories
Spring returns, and even the rain lingers
Listening to the drops of memory, constantly visiting
I pick the flowers to give as a gift
The deep purple branches, filled with my love
Spring rains softly tapping on the window
Making the Xoan flowers damp, my dear sister!
You said you would come to visit
The season of Xoan flowers blooming, filling the sky with purple for us
The Xoan flowers have fallen, covering the doorstep
When will you finally come back to visit me???


16. The Homeland of March...
Poem by: Trần Lộc
Plant a few memories
Into the endless love
The color of tomorrow fades
Yet the bud of homeland blooms again
The rice of the village glows red
Burning the sky above the homeland
A deep longing to return
To the old afternoon of the village, distant and yearning
The shore is alive with voices
The boat hastily crosses the river
A brief moment of confusion
The image of you from back then
The spirit of the homeland stirs
In the boundless sea of memories
The fragrance of rice fills the air
Constantly returning, alluring
The homeland of March sends its message
The Xoan flowers bloom, a symbol of loyalty
The grapefruit flowers bloom hesitantly
Pure white, waiting in anticipation...


17. The Gạo Flowers of My Homeland
Poem by: Nguyễn Thị Hồng Hạnh
Endearing is the Gạo tree at the village's edge,
Its rugged trunk, tender leaves shimmering green.
When winter comes, it stands barren, without a leaf,
Yet carefully holds the buds, waiting for spring’s return.
In March, the sky is painted with golden light,
The spring breeze dances along the green bamboo.
The Gạo flowers glow brightly on the branches,
Each blossom drifting down to form a floral carpet below.
I gently caress the delicate red petals,
The golden stamen entwines the flower's core.
These will soon ripen into fresh fruits,
Promising that when mature, they’ll shed their silky threads, turning white.
My childhood once adored this tree,
Each afternoon after school, I would gather its flowers.
How I wish it could always be March,
So I could forever gaze at the beauty of the Gạo flowers from my homeland.


18. The Season of Women
Poem by: Bùi Minh Huế
Mother still tells me about the season of women,
In March, when the Gạo flowers bloom.
The petals spread wide in vibrant colors,
Red as the rouge that kisses the cheeks and lips.
The season of women carries a fragrance,
Soothing and cool, stronger than the scent of grapefruit blossoms.
Radiant and sweet in a bright smile,
Hidden beneath the warmth of March sunlight.
The seasons pass, one after another,
Carrying the dreams of women with them.
These dreams are simple and sincere,
Fulfilling happiness beside their husbands.
Women do not long to witness the colors of the rainbow,
After storms, under a sky shimmering with sunlight.
They simply wish to share their sorrow,
Their private thoughts and everyday struggles.
Women await the season’s return with longing,
Through restless nights, where sleep eludes their eyes.
With constant reflections, not growing old,
What will life be like? How will the children fare tomorrow?
The season of women arrives in the bustling sunlight,
Accompanied by unsteady footsteps on quiet roads.
The season of women comes and goes silently,
Hiding their tears deep within the dark of night...


19. I Go in Search
Poem by: Lan Vương
I go in search of the Gạo flower in March,
As raindrops gently fall on the empty porch.
The sparse red blooms shine in the quiet,
The seasons call out to one another, their distant echoes heard.
I go in search of the version of myself from yesterday,
Hoping to reunite with the gentleness of days gone by.
The burdens of sunlight and rain have left their mark,
My eyes bear crow's feet, my cheeks show signs of age.
My steps return, filled with a sudden longing,
It still waits for me, yet you are far away.
I gaze at my reflection in the still evening sky,
Loving you with a restless heart.


20. The Flowers of March
Poem by: Hoa Diên Vỹ
To love is to never give up,
Like the sưa flower every March.
I wait alone on the familiar path,
By the road that leads to the village riverbank.
The flower blooms white, a dream of youth,
Where are you, so far away?
The cold breeze tangles my disheveled hair,
No matter how tightly I hold on, the memories still waver.
March weeps, but it is not my heart that trembles,
A tear falls, brushing the delicate petals,
The little bird startles, flying hurriedly,
Leaving behind the season on the fluttering leaf.
I have called out countless times in silence,
A name I thought was mine alone,
As March returns on schedule,
With the purity of a thousand blooms in full bloom.
