I have enjoyed reading your piece Grace. After getting myself all wound up by watching the news over and over again at the moment, I am finding your reminder that wars and powerful rulers all must pass very comforting. Because you are right....

It could so easily be any of us, and we don't know where the whole war will end up for all of us. our fragile modern peace has been shattered. Your poem expresses what so many of us are feeling and what we need to feel, so that we can all...
