Ukraine in Winter
While our children die starving and cold
in these holes
they randomly punch in the snow ..
Despite most of the free world praying
out loud, I can still see
a blue and gold flag waving and proud ..

Too easy indeed my friend to not only imagine but strive to seek further aid for these innocent victims of battling politics - -- a needed reminder indeed.............x
a BIG warm thank you to you dear lady Fay .. x
What is it in the human soul that will not allow us to succumb in the direst of situations. Is it faith, fervor, strength, a firm belief in what is truly right and wrong? You pay homage to all that binds us together dear poet in that wonderful last line.
Shocking isn't it .. but until the world is put to writes, I thank you from the very bottom of my heart for your continued interest in so many of my scribbles and the support you afford me .. Neville
Apposite reminder of a hideous situation existing while most of us enjoy the festive season, Nev.
Indeed sir, well spotted & there was me trying to be both subtle & tactful .. Neville
I too can see that flag Neville.

It is held so high you don't need to have the eyes of an eagle do ya Goldfinch60 .. thank you
and Defiantly! proud
long in-to Spring's gusts
may their flag be raised
fluttering and high
as I fear we'll still be hoping
and wishing, when Easter's festivities roll around...
an important write, thank you Hyung
While I still have the bit between my teeth, I feel it necessary to do my bit ..... Thanks again Mek .. N
