This Mid-Autumn Festival is without the children

That is the title of a poem by a reader with the account Phan Huu Tinh, sent to Tuoi Tre Online in response to the poem: "For us: the children of Lang Nu" by Dang Van Khoa. This Mid-Autumn Festival, where are you? Why don't you come to school to enjoy the feast? Let me keep coming and going, waiting . Without you, the school also feels sad! Tears kept flowing from the corners of my eyes. When I heard that you were no longer here, I stood still, looking out the door. Thinking that you were politely bowing in greeting , I sobbed and choked with emotion. My hands trembled as I held each keepsake , My mouth called out the names of my deceased students. Come here, my children, and receive your things. Why did I call, but you remained silent? I promised to make beautiful lanterns, Teaching you to shape a carp, Turning into a dragon and flying all the way to the moon. Mid-Autumn Festival is here, do you know? Our class is missing many children today . Perhaps, they are still playing somewhere, Not having time to come back to celebrate the Moon-watching Festival? With a painful heart, she could only say: I hope you all pass peacefully to Buddha's land . I have packed the remaining daily items , remember to take them back, okay?
