A POET DREAMING


It was in early September last year.

During Ukraine's grinding counter-offensive.

In the southern Kherson region.

That his war ended abruptly.


The soldier's tank drove.

Over a mine as it headed into combat.

When the 30-year-old regained consciousness.

He was surrounded by fire.


“You are not thinking about.

What you need to do.

You do it because.

You want to live.”


He survived because.

He was able to crawl out.

And be evacuated.

By his comrades.


He has since had several operations.

And skin transplants for his burns.

And his right leg had to be amputated.

Below the knee.


“You are not thinking about.

What you need to do.

You do it because.

You want to live.”


Six months later.

He still contemplates.

His life-changing injuries.

“I had both disappointments and hope.”


“The hardest stage of my treatment.

Is behind me.

I dream about.

Walking soon.”


“You are not thinking about.

What you need to do.

You do it because.

You want to live.”


Before the war.

He was an estate agent.

From Vinnytsya.

In central Ukraine.


Before the war.

He was a keen runner.

He finished a marathon in 2021.

And planned to compete in more.


“You are not thinking about.

What you need to do.

You do it because.

You want to live.”


He signed up to fight.

Just days after ‘Mordor’ launched.

Its full-scale invasion.

In February last year.


“You should not underestimate yourself.

But also you should not pity yourself.

Everything is still ahead of me.

I'm alive and healthy.”


“You are not thinking about.

What you need to do.

You do it because.

You want to live.”


“It's not the end.”

He is one of 11,000 patients.

Who've been treated at the Unbroken.

National Rehabilitation Centre so far.


Lviv's general hospital is one of.

244 across Ukraine.

Which take in injured soldiers and civilians.

Treating them for physical and psychological wounds.


“You are not thinking about.

What you need to do.

You do it because.

You want to live.”


Men in military uniforms.

Mix with members of the public.

Subtle hints that.

These aren't normal times.


The deeper you go into the building.

The more pronounced those clues become.

Mostly young men fill the corridors.

The majority are missing limbs.

A POET RETURNING


On a bitterly cold Kyiv morning.

The sight of him jogging with his friends.

Is a moving one of.

A return to a fuller life.


In May last year.

He was lying.

In a hospital bed.

With a broken pelvis and jaw.


He was injured.

While defending.

The south-eastern city of Mariupol.

Early in the invasion.


Despite then being captured.

He somehow made it home.

He'd always said he wanted.

To return to the front line.


‘Orcs’ captured the land.

‘Orcs’ captured, but he’s back to.

‘Orcs’ captured the land.


However, after losing.

Sight in one eye.

He's been told.

His military days are over.


Now he works at a veterans hub.

Organising events and lectures.

For other former soldiers.

“I struggled for a long time.”


“Sadly, my unit doesn't exist.

Any more as I knew it.

Those who served there with me.

Were either killed or captured.”


“I then realized I wasn't betraying them.

By not returning.”

He now helps other veterans.

With their rehabilitation.


‘Orcs’ captured the land.

‘Orcs’ captured, but he’s back to.

‘Orcs’ captured the land.


The soldier says he's grateful.

To the psychologist who.

Helped him deal with flashbacks.

As well as the sense of guilt and loneliness.


“I had some challenges.

Like fully acknowledging.

All of the horrors.

I survived.”


“As well as all.

Of the wonderful things.

Of this war.

Like the support of my friends.”


The healing process.

For Ukraine's soldiers.

Is made all the more difficult.

With the continued fighting.


This 26-year-old shows.

A return to a fuller life.

Is still possible.

Despite everything.

Kurama (Japan). Poems about war in Ukraine (2022)

"Aware of a poet?
Aware of a poet?
A poet of Cossack broods over the land.
Not noting a bullet.
Not noting a bullet.
You see a poet of Cossack in Borodyanka."

(Kurama)

 
 
 
 

 

 

 
Вірші про війну"Коли закінчиться війна,
Я хочу тата обійняти,
Сказати сонячні слова
І повести його до хати,
Ти – наш Герой! Тепер щодня
Я буду дякувати Богу 
За мирне небо, за життя,
Всім, хто здобув нам ПЕРЕМОГУ!"
 
(Ірина Мацкова)​

вчимо мовиДуже корисними для вивчення іноземних мов є саме вірші, пісні, казки, римівки, а також ігри. Природнім шляхом діти розвивають слух, навчаються вимові, інтонації та наголосу; вивчають слова та мовні структури. Пісні та римівки чудово сприймаються дітьми, малята люблять усе ритмічне та музичне, вони засвоюють це легко та швидко, тому що дістають від цього задоволення.
