Looking out from inside a store where I was sitting
I watched people shopping on the new year's eve.
Many stores lowered their sale prices this week.
This place is the Tanger Outlets in Hershey
People walked in the hurry to avoid winter gusts
Most people wore their winter coats
and extra wear to protect them from bitter cold
However, some young women didn't wear enough to cover their flesh.
There were a lot of tourists coming here to shop.
Parking spaces were filled with coming and leaving cars.
The sun didn't shine this winter afternoon because of dense clouds
From inside the store, I watched the last afternoon of the year.

Translation of Vietnamese poem Hersey Tanger Outlets, NHIEN NGUYEN MD
HERSHEY TANGER OUTLETS
Tôi ngồi trong tiệm, nhìn ra
Ngắm người đi chợ vào ngày cuối năm.
Tiệm buôn hạ gía, tuần này
Tanger Outlets, nơi này, Hershey.
Chiều đông, bỗng gió thổi nhiều
Người đi vội vã, gió nhiều, bước mau.
Phần đông áo ấm, khăn choàng
Một vài thiếu nữ áo quần thiếu che.
Nơi đây, du khách tới nhiều
Bãi xe tấp nập, kẻ về người đi.
Chiều đông, không nắng, mây nhiều
Tôi ngồi trong tiệm, ngắm chiều cuối năm.

I would like to translate this poem
Very interesting you wrote this poem as I was just there on a cold windy day looking for a pair of shoes at Sketchers. My Cambodian friend told me about this store that had shoes that helped her feet as she works long days at the Hershey Convention Center. My toes were suffering from arthritic changes and to my sursprise I found a pair of shoes which was made in Vietnam and made an amazing difference in helping my toes and feet so much better. Seems I'm the last to know about this comfortable, light weight shoes. My son, who is a doctor on his feet all day, also has a pair. I thank the people in Vietnam for making such life changing footwear for me and others.
