Little book of poetry
Finally, I have enough material to make my first booklet of poetry ✧｡◝(ᵔᗜᵔ)◜✧*｡
This booklet includes poems in Vietnamese and English and revolves around my relationship with darkness when the light goes out. These are not bedtime stories, I'm afraid, and if you are sensitive, I would advise against reading them right before sleeping.
But that said, to me, the poems are quite therapeutic. We are always surrounded by light; only when it’s dark do creatures of the night feel comfortable approaching us and communicating with us.
For your convenience, I will post every page of the poetry book here, but you can also download it to your device for better reading experience.
This is what they look like in real life. I started with the blue version, then felt the design a little cramped. So I reduced the text and image sizes, chose more stylish fonts, changed the color to white and removed the outer layer of cellophane to fit the minimalist vibe.
The reason for the minor differences between the print and online versions is that the minimalist style is better suited to the print version, whereas it's quite monotonous in the digital version. And I also changed the shade a bit into a softer, pastel blue.
