Very nice and quite concise. If I could have said it better I may have entered but I find writing such short poetry trying. Good luck with this entry.

Thank you for writing a short poem for the people of Ukraine.
If we all prayed at the same time maybe the call will be so loud that things will change quicker. There are no winners in war and I appreciate your thoughtfulness with this prayer.

Words hardly express our sorrow and anger at what Putin is doing to these peace-loving, Christian souls. I think you expressed our pain for them in your poem. Never thought to see cowardly war like this in my lifetime. K xx

Thanks, Bridge. I can't believe that something like this is happening while other countries sit by and watch.

Such a heartfelt Prayer! The author's words are clear, heartfelt,
direct and creative. I pondered on this prayer and found it to be
an honest request to God. The poem flows and connects well.
The artwork is awesome and goes well with these words.

Author,
This is a terse poem, containing few words, but so much meaning. The photo complements your words.
I believe the Ukrainian soldiers pray for courage and strength to endure. They are such courageous people.
Yours is an excellent prayer poem.
Best wishes,
Cindy
