At the end of the poem, hope is lost too soon, before the time is right.
We can reach this conclusion because:
- The poem is a great analogy about communism's invasion of Vietnam.
- In the poem, hope is represented by the papaya, which is not ripe enough to be picked.
- Some people want to cut the papaya, even before the right time, to prevent the communists from taking it.
- However, others feel that papaya should be cut when it is fully ripe, as everyone deserves it, including children.
- However, the papaya is cut early in a sad and melancholy way, as it is not ready to be eaten.
In that case, we can conclude that just like the papaya in the poem, some people cut hope out of their hearts very quickly towards the fight against communism and ended up leaving Vietnam too soon, before the right time, which was a sad and melancholic situation.
