Sons of Ukraine

Born of the womb,

They are seekers of hearts,

With fire in their eyes,

Strength in their hands,

Protectors of families,

Each one a man,

Fathers and brothers,

Sons under the sun,

They labor with joy,

For love is the reason,

Providing all they can give,

To those in their hearts.

They are quick to smile,

Slow to anger,

Givers of laughter,

Embraces of comfort,

Drying the tears,

From the pains of life,

With no greater joy,

Than the women of life,

Which gave them  love and family,

Purpose and reason,

Finding their place,

With faith in God.

They kiss them goodbye,

Near the trains and buses,

Sending family to safety,

Like the men of the Titanic,

Yet they take up arms,

In the fight for life,

For the rockets are flying,

The bullets are flying,

Their history is burning,

Yet their families have a chance,

Their country has a chance,

To live once again.

For love is greater than life,

They would give their lives for love,

For there is no greater gift,

Since love is the letting go of fear,

Love is the unbreakable bond,

Uniting us all once again.
