Ode to Ukraine

Peter Angelini, BEM, The People’s Poet, was inspired to write ‘Sadness For Ukraine’ after seeing events in the war torn country. It goes: 2022 is a very sad year. The invasion of Ukraine by Russia is very clear, To a country with nice and proud people, We have here, so much destruction, Loss of life, anger and pain, And sadly we all grieve for that, It is a shame. And united we will help, And for peace, pray for them, And hope that Russia soon realises, There is so much loss of life, Cruel- on both sides. And will understand there is no victory in war, Nobody ever won.
