Clang of swords, the songs, the marches, Falcon 'sfree demesne, Peaceful stars, pellucid waters - My Ukraine. Blue of groves, the fields, the dawning, Nightingale's refrain, Tender whispering and sighing, My Ukraine. And within your eyes, beloved, Shifts and flames again, With the sun ofjoyance lighted, My Ukraine.

The Discovery by Romana A. Rudnyk it rained last night. The wispy air stung with the night's vibrancy. І dared not speak. І felt — something Undetectable, Translucent. The fog lifted as the beams of warmth filtered through, And the clouds gave way to This new sensation. With my usual flair, І entered into this vast expanse — And surrendered. І recall it remotely... And yet with a strange passion Long to re-live my discovery, Though 1 now know that The real ecstasy comes but once.
