On February 24th a solemn reflection!
On this anniversary of the invasion of your land – where now are your beautiful flowers of peace, once feeding the world with your precious oils? Now with tears hidden underneath the soil, they are no more!
Sunflowers of joy, pressed to the ground, trodden under foot by humanity’s boot. Through the winter’s cruel plight your seed is preserved, no matter how bruised and abused you have been with weapons of war. So sweetly sleep until once more you bloom, and with smiles of love you will have forgiven!
