my grandmother' story

June 22, 1941,
Beautiful day, right after my Birthday.
When I thought, I will have it all.
Someone screaming:
War, war, turn on the radio.
4 pm, nothing will be the same again.
Women crying:
Oh, my God, oh, my God!
Sons, why do you have to go!?
Men getting ready without a word,
Stone faces: we will be back with victory.
Took only ten minutes to make huge lines near the school:
All men from 18 to 55 years old,
Women, nurses and telephonists
Must go immediately...
The next day radios working nonstop,
Our leader had the first talk:
Brothers and sisters we will together stay
And face our enemy.
Everyone is getting ready,
All prepared:
Food, milk, bread, clothes...
