*Because I read “Russian strike kills 3 Ukrainian toddlers and father, with pregnant mother injured” by Claire Keenan & Jaroslav Lukiv on 11 Feb 2026, and also “Why are Ukrainians calling Russians ‘orcs’?” by James FitzGerald on 30 Apr 2022, on the BBC news.
So, I wrote this poem, led by ‘KING LEAR’ written by William Shakespeare, you know.
Please read the original story on the BBC news:
