Ukraine has not yet perished

 


Did you ever know 
How they tormented Ukraine 
The beautiful fertile land 
Turned into a wasteland

The green grass 
Covered with blood 
The innocent civilians 
Became collateral victims 
The war took their lives 
Even prevented their final rites

The invaders came with heavy guns
Then the artillery shells exploded 
They brought death and destruction
They created a post-apocalyptic world

The world became stunned 
Witnessing atrocities
Yet did nothing 

The missiles and airstrikes
Destroyed houses and bridges 
But they couldn't destroy the Ukrainian spirit 

I saw a little girl 
Whose parents were consumed by the war 
She was wounded too 
Despite her pain and agony
She started singing 
She sang " Shche ne vmerla Ukrainy" 

Indeed  Ukraine has not yet perished
Ukraine will gain her strength
She will not give up 
She will rise again

  2. Initially Ukraine was given false promise by western countries to pinch Russia. Now IMF giving loan to Ukraine for purchasing lethal weapon. From where they purchase arms from? UK,USA and France both countries trapped to so called democratic countries strategy.
