Respect. Poem by David Wood

Respect.

Rating: 4.8


We in the West value our freedoms like
Freedom of speech, freedom to protest.
So I salute the brave Russian people
Who are protesting throughout the whole
Of Russia against the war in the Ukraine
By shouting ‘Нет войне' ‘No to war'
Pronounced in Russian ‘Nyet voynye', as
They face 15 years in prison when they
Are dragged off by Russian police.
Keep them in your thoughts too.

Уважать.

Мы на Западе ценим наши свободы как
Свобода слова, свобода протеста.
Так что я приветствую храбрый русский народ
Которые протестуют на протяжении всего
России против войны на Украине
Крича «Нет войны» «No to war»
Произносится по-русски «Нет войны», т.
Им грозит 15 лет тюрьмы, когда они
Утащены российской полицией.
Держите их и в своих мыслях.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Thousands of ordinary Russian citizens are protesting throughout Russia against the war in the Ukraine. They face 15 years in prison. Would we be willing to face such a stiff sentence?

Hooray for those brave citizens who are standing up for what is right. Their leader is a madman who seems to want to start WW3.

Exactly. So much Russian families live in both countries, since USSR, ...Every true Russian, like the statement of Lex Fridman, his father still in Russia.

I get paid more than £145 to £395 per HOUR for working online. I heard about this job 3 months ago and after joining this I have earned easily £23k from this without qw02having online working skills. Simply give it a shot on the accompanying site… Here's what I do………….CASH46.COM
