Ukrainian Cemeteries

Ukrainian Cemeteries
David J Walker

Strange are the faces of 
The new Ukraine 
Stranger still Mother Russian sons
Leaves of Lilies 
	And dipodies 
Scattered on grounds of repatriation

Peace be unto your 
	Brothers in death
A price purchased 
	With a final breath

As unknown boots 
Above the ground
Unfurl the flags of 
	Silent sound

To claim what’s lost 
An loose what’s found 

In the subtle slopes 
of the Ukraine
