After finishing high school, she joined the Youth Volunteers during the anti-American war, then returned to study at Nguyen Du Writing School, earned a bachelor's degree in journalism; worked for many years as a journalist and literary editor for Song Huong magazine, editor-in-chief of Cua Viet magazine, and senior expert of the Central Ideology and Culture Department.
She has published 18 collections of poetry, 4 epic poems and 12 collections of short stories and memoirs. Poet Le Thi May was awarded the State Prize for Literature and Arts in 2017. Poet Doan Van Mat once felt: “Le Thi May’s poetry is a permanent state of mind, uttered from the bottom of the heart, bursting out into sentences, resonating into words; hidden deep within is always the source of the feelings of a poet with a heavy heart for life”. The following collection of her poems is in the 4-line six-eight verse form.
New urban
Electrician and plumber
Zalo call softly when needed, ready immediately
Conveniently arranged utilities
New urban area is getting "brand new" every day...

Family
Family harmony and steadfastness
A boy and a girl were playing happily.
Playground morning sun wind
Garden of flowers and ornamental plants with fragrant buds
Row of trees
Window blinks south wind
Lightning showers cut through the source of alluvium
Rows of trees on the street are luxurious.
Barringtonia acutangula, sour plum... fragrant all year round
Afternoon rain
Fish and shrimp, one capital, four profits
" The flea market" spoke up quickly to invite people to buy quickly.
Old mother sitting quietly in the afternoon
The market closed after the afternoon rain...
Miss home
Fun park
Rainbow rain gym
The old man remembers the sound of the temple bell.
The wind blows from the countryside...
Durian
Durian is a fragrant fruit.
The outer shell is thorny and the inside is fragrant.
Cherish the love between husband and wife
Fragrant Southern Nine Dragon durian...
Miss the forest
Rhyme and strange feelings
Soaked deep with this salty tide
Long road words have legs
Footprints, sticks, youth misses the forest
Empty street
Holidays are deserted
The wives and children have all gone home.
Green light red light stand still
Three-way intersection, seven-way intersection, drifting clouds, sad eyes
Remote areas
Teachers in remote areas
Crossing forests and streams without complaint
Students go to class to review for exams.
The bag is heavy and the stomach is hungry.
