Today I can write about Lviv
and the white flower in the garden.
The wind in apricot trees.
Today I can write about Liev.
A hill overlooking the town.
Through days in the main square
where many people died.
My city struck by missiles.
How I suffered March.
So many times we have seen
charred earth the apricot trees
and in our blue skies
and over our heads the sun.
The weeping women, the dead child.
