Poems on War: Ukraine (Satis Shroff

1. DIED FOR FREEDOM (Satis Shroff) Many Ukranian men from 18 to 60 Have given up their lives, For Mother Ukraine in the cold winter. When Spring comes, Flowers will spring in their graves. They died for freedom From a tyrannical power, Armed to the teeth. A man who invented lies To invade Ukraine. * * * 2. HUNGER FOR POWER (Satis Shroff) Deeds of courage and resistance, Words of farewell in railway stations, When mother and children were sent away, To safer destinations, While the men stayed, To defend the motherland. Tears rolling down the cheeks Of men, children, siblings. Invaded by a ruthless autocrat A narcissist with dreams of restoring The faded Glory of the Soviets. Will the Cold War be followed By an age of chaos Violence and conflict? A world that cannot distinguish Between destruction and self-destruction? No desire to legitimize the nefarious deeds. Violence develops a momentum of its own. The slaughter, the butchery, Driven by the greed and hunger for power. * * * ...

Be well Educated and not Instructed (Satis Shroff) Welcome to the capital of united Germany. Remember going to Bonn in the former days--before the Wall was pulled down by both German people from the West and east. The Berlin Wall was a guarded concrete barrier that physically and ideologically divided Berlin from 1961 to 1989. It was constructed by the German Democratic Republic (GDR, East Germany), starting on 13 August 1961.  The Wall cut off West Berlin from all of the surrounding East Germany, until government officials opened it in November 1989. The demolition of the long Wall began on 13 June 1990 and finished in 1992. The barrier included guard towers placed along large concrete walls who had orders to shoot at anyone trying to escape to the West. It was accompanied by a wide area called the "death strip" that contained anti-vehicle trenches, "fakir beds" with nails and other defenses. The Eastern Bloc portrayed the Wall as protecting its po...

Schwarzwald Nature Diary: Easter Scribblings (Satis Shroff)

Mesmerised by the tweets and chirps of our feathered friends.. Schwarzwald Diary: Easter Scribblings (Satis Shroff) The table is set with painted Easter eggs, And two self baked lambs. Outside you can hear the feathered friends Tweeting and chirping joyously. The festival of resurrection has become An avian feast in the Schwarzwald. The dawn goddess Eosire has brought us blessings. Two gold finches appeared looking for tidbits. The wooden nest on the backyard is frequented by big and small birds. A shy woodpecker is busy gathering corns. A pair of noisy magpies come by. A jay dashes to plunder the nest. Two blackbirds are waiting patiently in the bush, As blue tits flutter to have their share; Followed by a curious green tit and a finch. After lunch a bullfinch appears on the hillside, Only to be frightened by a pair of obnoxious crows. ‘It’s our revier,’ they seem to assert. High in the sky a kite and two buzzards Are carrying out sorties languidly. The bushes begin to shake wi...
