FROM RUMA TO UKRAINE

 Sister Marcia Kruse, ASC3 Comments

We’re losing our home

Separated from our family

Walking into the unknown

Heart bleeding

Sounds of war

Some fresh, some old

Our land

Our land

Such rich history

So many fond memories

I want to reach out to you

To someone

Who will hold me tight

Assure me

It will be okay

But as bombs crash

And earth shakes

We tremble

And fear

We are fewer

And fewer

How will we survive

If we survive?

    Dear Sr. Marcia,
    This poem really touches my heart, for your community, for all the people of Ukraine, and for my community, which is also moving toward completion. Some parts of the situation of our former Motherhouse are similar, and some are different, but we share your feelings.
    Peace, Arlene
