I am sure that this is true of so many people in Ukraine and other countries that are torn by war and trouble. You have portrayed the despair that faces them, but thankfully there are those who are reaching out like the neighbour in your closing words.

Well done, you chose a heart-breaking scene with a happy ending for this competition. Ukraine is going through hell and it's beyond tragic. Thanks for sharing this and best of luck with the competition

Comment from F. William Lester
Well said. We could all use a little gratitude in our lives--we should show more as well. A great thought in so few words. I would like to see this expanded into a longer story to discover what happened to put him in this situation and how his life changed because of the gratitude shown him. Just a thought. Good luck in the contest. Stay well.

A lovely story. One that really touches the heart . War is horrible. Stories coming from Ukraine are heartbreaking. My parents live overseas and are over 70. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Malcolm Rothery
Very poignant and very topical. We cannot imagine, can we, the plight of old and young alike in Ukraine. There is a reckoning coming for Putin as there was for Ceau»?escu in Rumania. Let's hope sooner rather than later. Thank you.

Hi there,
Well i can tell you, there's a whole heap of trauma awaiting these folks. It's not just the war, it what comes next.
Shivering from the cold, aware of many voices and children crying. Someone hands me a coffee.- this should probably be all one sentence. As it is, the first sentence doesn't go anywhere. There's no subject.
All the best

If I had a 6 left, I would give it to you! You have combined two totally opposite feelings within the same set of circumstances. The imagery is outstanding, as if the presentation. Good luck in the contest. ann

You have captured what I would imagine being displaced by war would be like. We are all praying for Ukraine. Thank you for sharing your work here. Best wishes.
