This Christmas, I Have A Night Song For My Ukrainian Sisters

Poem: My Ukrainian sister, my heart and yours merge, Tiny bits of golden happiness. I sift from falling stardust, even in dark, scary, smoggy, wintery nights. I send you the light and love to mergeI. feel your silent, sad presence. Your loss walks with me...

Listening to the sounds of nature

I walk in the greens

Watching the sun setting in oceans afar

Waves go home to rest; they merge

My soul talks to the wind

Creatures of the night come alive to

Whisper their secret songs

I am them for the moment; we merge

Never miss real stories from India's women.

Register Now

At home in my nest

Sipping wine, nibbling cheese

An unknown melody plays in me

My Ukrainian sister, my heart and yours merge

Tiny bits of golden happiness

I sift from falling stardust, even in

Dark, scary, smoggy, wintery nights

I send you the light and love to merge

I feel your silent, sad presence

Your loss walks with me

My Ukrainian Sisters living far beyond my borders

I send prayers for kindness and peace to emerge!
