Let innocent birds fly across the deep blue sky
And pretty white cotton clouds roam peacefully
Let glorious sunflowers bloom all over
the endless Ukraine fields filled with birds’ songs
No more sounds of gunfire
No more smell of smoke from burning debris and corpses
from the land and from the sky.
Politicians and military leaders,
Weapon producers and arms dealers,
What have you done so far,
money and power chasers?
Loud but empty words from stone hearts and robot heads
Insensitive blank faces of slate with no facial expressions!
Let peace return to lands of sorrows
Let peace return to the broken hearts of the living
Let the dead rest in the Earth’s caring soil
Let humans see the eternal poignant truth:
Hatred and wars only breed crimes and destruction
while Mother Earth awaiting us to care,
to heal and to
love,
NOT TO DESTROY.
