Empty Nests

Ukraine War Poetry

Empty Nests waits for birds of spring
Our empty nest in Kyiv soon to be filled
Smell of dogs and our talkative neighbor
St. Volodymyr’s Cathedral, our spiritual home
Lighting candles, saying prayers, ah life
Soon birds will sing, flowers will bloom.
And we will walk toward the glory of Pascha.
