Dnieper River #Poem #Painting by Nikos Laios

 

The rain is falling
Hard now and my boots
Are stuck in the mud,
We have a respite
Until the next attack
And I think of you,
Do you think of me?

I think of our picnics
On the banks of the
Dnieper River during
Spring and the chiming
Of Saint Sophia church
Bells on Sundays,
And everybody wearing
Their Sunday best;
But that seems so long
Ago now when
We had peace.
