Poem
Spare a thought this Christmas for those suffering in Ukraine While you are enjoying the festive season Russia inflicts more pain Huddled around makeshift fires with no where to escape the chill The evil Russians fire missiles and drones that are designed to kill. Russia hopes by taking out their power grid that they will give in But its made them more determined not to yield to Vlad Putin They're melting snow for water it's what they're having to do And if we didn't live in a civilised world it could easily be me or you. Women and girls are sexually assaulted at the point of a gun Their families are forced to watch while these dogs have their fun Another report a girl watched her friend raped and shot in the head They didn't want any witnesses and made sure that she was dead. Mass graves have been discovered with bodies tied and bound With many showing signs of torture investigators have found Russia claims only military targets have been hit but of course its lies Anything that comes out of Putins mouth should come as no surprise. Iran is supplying Putin with missiles and other cheap hardware Putins rants about nuclear weapons I don't think he would dare The axis of evil has now changed its now Nth Korea, Russia and Iran They're all a bunch of cowards and they'd never fight man to man. The Patriot missile system Ukraine needs and I urge the US to supply Because if they don't Russian bombers will fly and many more will die The war has already escalated because weapons we are supplying And only by doing so will it prevent the death toll in Ukraine from rising. Written on 13th December 2022 I have supported Ukraine since February by writing poems about what is happening there and trying to bring to light atrocities that have been committed by the Russian army against the Ukrainian people and have at no time written anything negative about some brave Russian people who opposed Putin and many who have been imprisoned for making a stand.
