POETS IN DNIPRO


He moved his elderly mother.

To Dnipro last year.

Believing it to be a safer place.

To live during the war.


On Saturday 40 people.

Were killed in the strike.

He is a son in search of his mother.

Who is still missing.


A bright, family kitchen in Ukraine.

Was exposed to the world.

When an ‘orcs’ missile strike tore off.

Its external wall.


The apartment was home to well known.

Boxing coach.

Who was killed in Saturday's attack.

His wife and children reportedly survived.


The devastating strike hit.

The entrance of a nine-storey building.

Turning several floors.

Into smouldering rubble.


A sizeable crowd gathered to watch.

The rescue effort at the site of the strike.

While others joined rescue workers.

In a desperate search for survivors.

There were urgent calls.

Human chains of volunteers.

Clearing rubble and torch beams.

Piercing thick clouds of dust and smoke.


The everyday domesticity.

Of the cosy kitchen is framed by.

The sudden and total devastation.

Delivered by an ‘orcs’ attack.


The modern-looking kitchen.

With bright yellow cupboards.

Remained remarkably intact after the strike.

Despite the total destruction of its external wall.


A bowl of apples sits on the table.

Dishes lie next to the sink.

Waiting to be washed and.

Oven gloves still hang neatly from a line of hooks.


“Here people cooked.

Had kitchen conversations.

Celebrated holidays.

Laughed, argued,” Kyiv MP wrote.


She compared the destruction of the building.

To the fate of her country:

“These are the wounds on the body of Ukraine.

Wounds on our homes.”


In a video published online and reposted.

By Ukraine's armed forces.

A young girl smiles as she is presented.

With a huge birthday cake.


And blows out her four candles.

The same yellow cupboards are clearly visible.

As are the oven gloves.

And television on the wall.

The strike in Dnipro killed 40 people.

The victims included three children.

With more than 30 people still.

Unaccounted for on Monday evening.


In his evening address on Sunday.

‘Gandalf the Green’ noted.

He had received many messages of sympathy.

From around the world.


And he condemned the ‘orcs’ “cowardly silence”.

Over the Dnipro attack.

Switching to ‘orcs’ language.

During his message, he said.


He wanted to address those.

“Who even now could not utter.

A few words of condemnation.

Of this terror”.


“Your cowardly silence.

Your attempt to 'wait out' what is happening.

Will only end with the fact that.

One day these same terrorists will come for you.”


He added the victims of the strike.

Included a 15-year-old girl.

And that two children.

Had been left orphans.

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."

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.
