Thorns in the Heart I
soul of the painful cactus thorns. Nguyen's soul likes a desert with
the sun fire such as the flame of war. The war devastated and burned
everything in the country, made the people live to turn upside down
to the root without the help of others.
Love was like an alone camel; it was walking on the desert
without direction in a long night coldest and sand storm. The thorns
of the cactus were as the painful, which tried to punch on its body

melting, and cloud will leave the top of the mountain, then fly in the
wide sky with the strong wind and lightning storm!
Thu-Thu-Thao...Did you know that:
