Invasion Of Ukraine



Amidst the snow-capped peaks of Ukraine,
A nation once at peace, now in pain,
As dark clouds gather, and winds blow cold,
A ruthless force seeks to take hold.

The drums of war resound afar,
And armies march, to crush and scar,
The land, the people, and their pride,
With tanks and guns, they seek to divide.

The people cry out, in righteous rage,
As homes and towns, fall to the enemy's siege,
Their lives are torn, their dreams destroyed,
Their faith in humanity, deeply void.

But in the face of this oppression,
A spirit rises, with new possession,
A nation stands, with courage strong,
Their fight for freedom, a resounding song.

From every village, town and city,
A united voice, echoes with dignity,
"We shall not bow, nor shall we yield,
Our love for Ukraine, an unbroken shield."

And so they stand, with heads held high,
Against the might, of a force unwise,
For they know that in the end, they shall prevail,
And Ukraine shall be free, their spirit will never fail.
