Some musings

The sun sinks low on Cornwall’s cape
The shadows shift and change their shape
Then stealing up the rocky shore –
What might the nighttime have in store?

Now far away ‘neath darker skies
A parent weeps – a baby dies
The unrelenting ursine plan
Of inhumanity to man

All those whose bombs wreak such despair
All those who kill with ne’er a care
Believe me when I say it’s true
There’ll be no victory for you

For if with tanks and guns you chose
To fight a war – you’ll surely lose
The weak who hate are not the kind
To find that love wins heart and mind

Take Mariupol, Odessa, Kyiv
Your aims you still will not achieve
As shadows shrink and sun ascends
We’ll see that this land never ends.
