A world away, Donesk, or the city roses?A Poem by Liz AlexanderThe land across The ocean Roses are on Every street corner
Coming to teach And to touch the hearts Of children And teens
Building relationships With people, children, and kids Our translators With God in mind
The city of Roses Have made many Fall in love With Children, Friends, sisters, and brothers In christ
This place Has given each something We crave for a year or more
Till we can Join agian With our brothers and sisters In christ
For some it is A teeter toter of death Some Hot Chocolate Cherry Juice Or Cherries on a Cherry Tree
Friends we had made In past yThe ears Kids we taught Or just love...
This City has a Futball Staduim Bus and Taxi Rides Park of art works Amusement park
Words of Encouragement Are past to one another While we worship In one another prescence
Bread has been broken In fellowship with one another A bond of a Savior The same blood Runs through our veins
Days and Days Spent together When we finally say goodbye Tearfull partings
Memories will appear In pictures and smiles People will say things That they make you flash back
To these times We share In years to come
We always have The love we shared In Donesk, Ukraine
Life time of friends Are made in these few weeks No lanuage barrier Can keep this love away
This love Keeps ups returning Every year So our hearts Can touch and be touched By our loved ones here. © 2011 Liz AlexanderAuthor's Note
