If you wish to see some of my poems before I was on Blue Sky ..I am on Instagram as @anita.counselling
For each child that dies
A thousand cuts
For every women's cry
A thousand cuts
For each man at war
A thousand cuts
For all the land you seized
Look into my eyes
What do you see
Ukraine is determined
To remain free
💙💛

Ukraine still stands.
Ukraine still stands.
A hidden heart
Strong and resolute
Ukraine endures
Cold and snow
Endless attacks
In the bleakest of winters
Above
A magpie whispers
You will survive
Spring will come
Despite Russia's efforts
🎨 Into the snow covered branches

In each frozen flat
A warm heart lives
Exhausted but resolute
We must continue
Putin we refuse to die!
In each frozen flat
A warm heart lives
Exhausted but resolute
We must continue
Putin we refuse to die!
The frost is fierce
No heat
No light
Power drained
By Putin's might
No lifts
No water
The long march upstairs
Wondering if anybody cares
Power returns
Some heat
Some light
Quickly charge
Everything in sight
The frost is fierce
No heat
No light
Power drained
By Putin's might
No lifts
No water
The long march upstairs
Wondering if anybody cares
Power returns
Some heat
Some light
Quickly charge
Everything in sight
White snow drapes
The red viburnum
She stands enveloped
Her head shrouded
Breath freezes
Silver crystals
Suspended
Fingers frozen
Held almost in prayer
She wraps her heart
Deep inside
Remaining strong
And resolute
Waiting for February to pass

A new start
But not for all
Life on the line
In trenches
Dodging first person drones
In cities
The air defence
Protects from
Hundreds of drones
Multiple missiles
Air alerts ring out
Generators hum
People are weary
Buty still determined
Ukraine stands firm
A new start
But not for all
Life on the line
In trenches
Dodging first person drones
In cities
The air defence
Protects from
Hundreds of drones

Air alerts ring out
Generators hum
People are weary
Buty still determined
Ukraine stands firm
The table
12 dishes
A candlestick
A didukh
Symbol of peace
And harmony
Everything ready
All places ready and waiting
Not for the first star
But for the return
Of a husband a father
A son
Missing hero's
Each one a missing star
💙💛

Another flight
To protect the skies
My gift prepared
My gift designed
To hunt down
Putin's worst
To defend my land
To defend my people
The heaven's proclaim
Slava Ukraini

Shards of unity
Smashed by Trump
Europe pulls together
And continues to support
The coalition of the willing
Stand firm
Will we see a peace deal?
Is it real?
Or as I fear a mirage?

Vechornytsi 2025
In Ukraine
In times past
On dark winter nights
Young people gathered
To spin
To sew
To sing songs
To plan futures
To share
Food and warm company

Thanks is given every day
For freedom
Hard fought with Ukrainian blood
Thanks for the air defence gods
Protecting lives and homes
Thanks for another night survived
The war continues
No sign of a true peace on the table
Thankful that despite it all
Ukraine stands firm

Icy fingered branches
Reach skyward
Lights reflect
Hope and dignity
Kyiv's life flows
Despite the darkness
And the chill
From supposed friends
Ukraine remains
Steadfast
💙💛

Street lights glow
Reflections on a busy day
The young tree shimmers
Reluctant to release
It's last leaves
A breeze brings
The breath of life
A moment to cherish
A moment of Kyiv life
Who knows what
This night will bring

Lost
Missing
Or held captive
Their voices silenced
The chairs sit ready
Waiting for their return

Poppies worn to remember
Those that fought for us
Those that gave their lives
Red the colour of their sacrifice
The price of our freedom
We will not forget
Poppies worn to remember

Red the colour of their sacrifice

But know the fight continues
We hear nothing
But know the bombs still fall
We hear nothing
But we know the suffering goes on
But we still support you Ukraine
We haven't forgotten you

But we know the suffering goes on
But we still support you Ukraine
