U.S. President Donald Trump's administration is redirecting anti-drone equipment earmarked for Ukraine to its own troops based in the Middle East. The decision comes as Russia has intensified its drone attacks in recent months, targeting cities across Ukraine. President Trump said “Ukraine has no cards to play to end war with Russia”
A friend in need is a friend indeed
To end the war at any cost
Make sure that Ukraine has lost
How can you do this, Mr. Trump?
My throat now has a lump
You keep on playing Russian tune
So dear to the Kremlin goon
Give in, give up, “no cards to play”
To push, to cut, forego, betray
I fail to wrap my aching brain
Around children being slain
The ruins, pain and desperation
Knife in the back and no salvation
Forsake Ukraine’s bravest souls
Somehow it meets our foreign goals
Let Russia win, you're “Putin’s friend”
Is this how war is going to end?
Don’t kid yourself, the ugly beast
To take the West and North and East
Oh, why, but why you make us act
As if your soul has been hacked?
I have no clue what drives White House
From where I stand, Trump looks like louse
Ukraine shall win, of this I’m sure
With or without us, and endure

"Just keep doing what you’re doing, and you’ll be fine."
There is no luck in waiting, not until your stars align.
The world’s egotism will be your strong nemesis.
So stay strong and motivated amidst all these crises.
You’ll be searching for happiness in the corners of the room.
Yet, life will be much more complex—and mostly doomed.
A friend in need is a friend indeed.
But real friends don’t discard efforts, so take heed!
Your shoes will wander around to beautiful places.
Falling in love with the wrong people will happen for ages.
Heartbreaks will be part of your journey; brace yourself!
But the only person standing in your way is yourself.
You’ll yearn countless times in the middle of the night.
Success will be obscure for a sophisticated man to write.
Society will disdain your credibility as a person.
But it will all happen for one particular reason.
So stay strong and motivated amidst all these crises.
The world’s egotism will be your strong nemesis.
There is no luck in waiting, not until your stars align.
"Just keep doing what you are doing, and you will be fine."

How true was it?
"A friend in need is a friend indeed"
T and I were friends for half a century.
Our friendship fell out three times over these years,
During our youth included our adulthood.
Each time, I honestly have not a clue
What had happened?
She remained extremely cold and distance.
After many attempts, I respected her decisions,
Just waited till she was ready to contact me.
Last time it happened in 2018.
Two years later, I met her brother,
He said she has been suffering
Depression after losing both parents.
Since then, I moved on with my life.
On year later, the person I cared for,
Succumbed to his terminal illness.
I needed her more than ever,
She still tackled with her mental health matter.
I moved on again.
Half a decade later,
I met BB, who introduced me
All the Firmware's Apps ,
To protect me from privacy issues.
When our friendship ended,
Most of the Apps he installed,
Started having troubles,
No one was able to fix them,
Because BB used very high IT Apps.
Within one year, I met Mr Loner,
Who travelled a lot.
He invited me a trip to Sydney with him,
At the time, I did not want it.
But something happened last week,
Prompted me to take a break with holiday.
However, the last time I travelled,
It was nearly two decades ago,
With the advancing technologies,
I have absolutely no idea,
What to do and how to book
The transport and accommodations.
Besides BB, T and Mr Loner were very frequent travellers.
One Overseas the other Australia.
But, did it matter?
They did not treat me as their friend,
For one good reason or another.
They were not there for me when I needed them.
I know they knew I knew,
I have been very good to them.
When they needed me, I was always there for them
That was exactly, what the saying meant
"A friend in need is a friend indeed".
I might be a loner but not a loser.
I have been and will always be a fighter and warrior.
FRIENDSHIP TO WORSHIP
VERSE I
‘A friend in need is a friend indeed’
learnt in school days sowed the seed
to sprout in core of heart turning tree.
Branches of compassion spread in spree.
Blossomed fragrant flowers of emotion.
Ripened delicious fruits of devotion.
Strong bond of friendship went on promise,
smiling in happiness, lending hand on cries.
VERSE II
Souper-friends in interaction are all unseen.
Yet, to share feelings, some are keen.
I find like-minded talented some special one,
staying far forward : Next generation.

True Friends
Strong current always flowed on that stream.
A tall tree stood steady just on its brim.
A dove used to take rest on nest on top of tree.
An ant stayed in hole on ground moving free.
Both were good friends caring for each other.
Ant below and dove above loved each other.
Once, losing grip the ant slipped on water.
It tended to sink on rushing flow of river.
Dove dropped a leaf in front of sinking ant.
The ant managed to sit on leaf at that instant/
Leaf-boat reached the ant to the bank.
Ant waved its antenna to say ‘Thanks’.
Shortly came n hunter aiming at the dove.
This time the ant was prompt to observe.
It bit a strong sting on the hunter’s toe.
Hunter had to leave his bow and arrow.
Dove became alert and flew away.
Ant moved happily on its way.
“A friend in need is a friend indeed.
Grow Great. Be Grateful. Do Good Deed.”
