To the Dead, and the Living, and the Unborn

During times of confusion and suffering, the past often resonates with the present and points a light for the future. Today we present “To the Dead and the Living and the Unborn”, a poem by Ukrainian national poet Taras Shevchenko. It is the message he wrote 177 years ago to his past, present, and future; we are the audience of his future. “To the Dead and the Living and the Unborn” was included in the Thornwillow Dispatch in April 2022.
