FIRST LINE

FIRST LINE By Kapardeli Eftichia

Twenty-three years after the last war in Europe The sirens of war are ringing again

Advertisement

Ukraine - Russia Fear leads countries to conflict Images of war that stick in my eyes forever Deep sadness, in farewells

A soldier bids farewell to his little daughter, heartbreakingly

We live the irrationality of war once again

The sound of the bombing sounds scary Once again Europe in utter chaos and threat Where is the World Peace, the brotherhood !!!!!!!!!!! Dead, Wounded, Civilians, Children, Relatives, Classmates, Friends

And the sirens did not stop piercing our ears

Ukraine cursed, at war horror rockets are constantly falling on cities

Russian forces pound the big cities, dead and in the villages

Mariupol, Kiev, Sartana

Young children with guns in hand, Brother kills Brother We became refugees and we are looking for a new life, in Poland, in

Romania, in Hungary, in Slovakia

Let us believe in good and not in evil

KAPARDELI EFTICHIA –GREECE –PATRA

Let us ask for the goods of Peace

There is no way to Peace. Peace is the way as Mast A. used to say.

When everyone resolves their differences by force of arms Military equipment disrupts fragile World Peace.

Let the strong have a dialogue with human values, understanding,

Harmonious coexistence

Compassion, Unity, Idealism, Generosity, Kindness, Justice, Freedom

this is Peace

There Has Never Been a Good War or a Bad Peace (Franklin) The European Union is called upon to prove security

The Defense the Peace.
