Flying Angel

We will win!!!

I believe, I hope, I love!!!

An angel is flying towards us.

In the magical sunset!!!

 

 

Now for number three:

you unwound every bit

of the worsted

while I wasn’t looking!

 

‘That’s three faults, Kitty,

and you’ve not been

punished for

any of them yet.

 

 

Hello, my dear!!!

We work and work and work…

And in the sky.

– such incredible stars!!!

 

And sometimes.

You see a star fall…

You see a star fall…

It’s just a moment…

 

Like our life.

On the scale of the universe…

But in our dimension.

Our life lasts for decades…

 

 

You know I’m saving up

all your punishments

for Wednesday week

– Suppose they had saved up

 

all my punishments!’

she went on,

talking more to herself

than the kitten.

 

 

God, please let.

Our life be long!!!

God, please let.

Our life be happy again.

 

– without war and damn ‘orcs’…

God, please do.

Something magical before.

Christmas and New Year.

 

So that our Holy Land.

Becomes peaceful again.

And is cleansed.

Of evil enemies…

 

 

‘What would they do

at the end of a year?

I should be sent to prison,

I suppose, when the day came.

 

Or – let me see –

suppose each punishment

was to be going

without a dinner:

 

 

Am I asking for the impossible???

But all fairy tales.

In the world end with.

Good triumphing over Evil…

 

Don’t they?

So, we will win!!!

So, we will win!!!

Because Ukraine is Good!!!

 

Because Ukraine is Light!!!

Because Ukraine is unbreakable!!!!

‘Elves’ are strong.

Our warriors are titans!!

 

 

then, when the miserable day came,

I should have to go

without fifty dinners

at once!

 

Well, I shouldn’t

mind that much!

I’d far rather go

without them than eat them!

 

 

We will win!!!

I believe, I hope, I love!!!

An angel is flying towards us.

In the magical sunset!!!

 

 

*Because I read my friend’s next letter.
So, I wrote this poem, led by ‘THROUGH the LOOKING-GLASS’ written by Lewis Carroll, you know.
You are really an angel, my friend!
And the photo at the head of this page is, of course, yours, my friend!

 

 

**Now she creates a new page for my little ‘Alice’ poems on their wonderful website for Ukrainian children and their parents and teachers and all.
