Celebrate our Easter,
the resurrection of Christ.
This year’s.
In the struggles of war.
Celebrated our Easter,
the resurrection of Christ.
Last year’s.
In the Pandemic at home.
Celebrate our Easter,
the resurrection of Christ.
We show the world,
nothing can defeat our Ukraine.
*Because I read today’s BBC news (posted on 24 April 2022) “Zelensky releases Easter video message” on the Internet as follows:
“President Zelensky has released a new video marking Orthodox Easter, a major festival in Ukraine.
He drew a comparison between the suffering caused by Covid and the struggles of war.
Addressing his compatriots, he said: “Last year we celebrated Easter at home because of the pandemic. This year, we also celebrate the resurrection of Christ not as we used to. Because of another virus. Because of the plague called war.
“Both last year’s and this year’s threat are united by the same thing: nothing can defeat Ukraine.”
His address was filmed in Kyiv’s St Sophia Cathedral, which Zelensky said had withstood the Nazi occupation of his country during World War Two.”
So, I wrote this poem.
**My friend shows you this poem also on the Ukrainian website for their children and others!
