Peaceful Time
This picture is capturing peaceful time in Vietnam. In the serene and tranquil backgrown of a farm
people are working on the land, talking to a friend,
straightening their back, or having a little rest.
There is no sign of poverty, anguish, or grief.
Vienamese are working hard to earn money and
pursue their own happiness.
Times of War
This is a famous picture that spread out during the Vietnam War
which afflicted many people, arousing tough sensations toward the war.
A boy, no more than 10 years old, is begging for money on the street.
Beside him, a little baby brother is lying in a ragged box.
The boy is taking care of the baby when
he himself needs care and love.
Maybe his parents died in a fight or barrage of gunshots.
This was the time of war,
and you probably could have seen this kind of scene everywhere
throughout the country.
