Beautiful quatrains about Victory Day. Congratulations on Victory Day (May 9) in prose

This page contains poems for children about the Great Patriotic War, about Victory, about the holiday of May 9, about soldiers, about veterans, about mass graves and obelisks, about the eternal flame and about the feat of soldiers.

He was buried in the globe

S. Orlov

They buried him in the globe,
And he was just a soldier,
In total, friends, a simple soldier,
No titles or awards.
The earth is like a mausoleum to him -
For a million centuries,
And the Milky Ways are gathering dust
Around him from the sides.
The clouds sleep on the red slopes,
Blizzards are sweeping,
Heavy thunder roars,
The winds are taking off.
The battle ended a long time ago...
By the hands of all friends
The guy is placed in the globe,
It's like being in a mausoleum...

No war

S. Mikhalkov

One day the children went to bed -
The windows are all darkened.
And we woke up at dawn -
There is light in the windows - and there is no war!

You don't have to say goodbye anymore
And don’t accompany him to the front -
They will return from the front,
We will wait for heroes.

The trenches will be overgrown with grass
At the sites of past battles.
Getting better every year
Hundreds of cities will stand still.

And in good moments
You will remember and I will remember,
Like from fierce enemy hordes
We cleared the edges.

Let's remember everything: how we were friends,
How we put out fires
Like our porch
They drank fresh milk
Gray with dust,
A tired fighter.

Let's not forget those heroes
What lies in the damp ground,
Giving my life on the battlefield
For the people, for you and me...

Glory to our generals,
Glory to our admirals
And to the ordinary soldiers -
On foot, swimming, horseback,
Tired, seasoned!
Glory to the fallen and the living -
Thank you to them from the bottom of my heart!

Obelisks

A. Ternovsky

There are obelisks in Russia,
They have the names of soldiers...
My boys the same age
They lie under the obelisks.
And to them, silent in sadness,
Flowers come from the field
The girls who were waiting for them so much
Now they are completely gray.

Victory Day

T. Belozerov

May holiday -
Victory Day
The whole country celebrates.
Our grandfathers put on
Military orders.

The road calls them in the morning
To the ceremonial parade.
And thoughtfully from the threshold
The grandmothers look after them.

What kind of holiday?

N. Ivanova

There are festive fireworks in the sky,
Fireworks here and there.
The whole country congratulates
Glorious veterans.

And the blooming spring
Gives them tulips
Gives white lilac.
What a glorious day in May?

Victory

Frontline songs,
Military awards,
Red tulips,
Veterans' meetings
And fireworks in half the sky,
Huge as Victory.

What is Victory Day

A. Usachev

What is Victory Day?
This is the morning parade:
Tanks and missiles are coming,
A line of soldiers is marching.

What is Victory Day?
This is a festive fireworks display:
Fireworks fly into the sky
Scattering here and there.

What is Victory Day?
These are songs at the table,
These are speeches and conversations,
This is my grandfather's album.

These are fruits and sweets,
These are the smells of spring...
What is Victory Day -
This means no war.

Day of Remembrance

Day of Remembrance -
Victory holiday,
Carrying wreaths
Living ligature,
Warmth of bouquets
Different colors,
So as not to get lost
Connection with the past.
And the mournful slabs are warmed
Flowers with the breath of the field.
Take it, fighter,
It's all like a gift
After all, this is necessary
Us,
Alive.

Old photo

S. Pivovarov

Photograph on the wall -
There are memories of the war in the house.
Dimkin's grandfather
On this photo:
With a machine gun near the pillbox,
Hand bandaged
Smiles slightly...

Here for just ten years
Older than Dimka
Dimkin's grandfather.

On the radio

Letter I tried
Write without blots:
"Please do
A gift for grandfather..."

Been on the road for a long time
Musical hello.

But here he comes
And my grandfather hugged me -
Came to see him on holiday
9th May
His favorite song
Frontline.

At the obelisk

The spruce froze on guard,
The blue of the peaceful sky is clear.
Years go by. In an alarming hum
The war is far away.

But here, at the edges of the obelisk,
Bowing my head in silence,

And a soul-tearing explosion of bombs.

We see them - Russian soldiers,

They paid with their lives

Veteran's Tale

Guys, I'm at war
I went into battle and was on fire.
Morz in the trenches near Moscow,
But, as you can see, he is alive.
Guys, I had no right
I'll freeze in the snow
Drowning at the crossings
Give your home to the enemy.
I should have come to my mother,
Grow bread, mow grass.
On Victory Day with you
See the blue sky.
Remember everyone who is in a bitter hour
He himself died, but saved the earth...
I'm giving a speech today
Here's what it's about, guys:
We must protect our homeland
Holy as a soldier!

No one is forgotten

A. Shamarin

“No one is forgotten and nothing is forgotten” -
Burning inscription on a block of granite.

The wind plays with faded leaves
And the wreaths are covered with cold snow.

But, like fire, at the foot there is a carnation.
No one is forgotten and nothing is forgotten.

Grandpa's friends

May... The birds are chirping with might and main,
And the parade is going on in the capital.
Grandfathers wear orders.
Happy Victory Day!

Friends come to grandpa
They come on Victory Day.
I like to listen for a long time
Their songs and conversations.

Burning gold in the sun
Military awards,
And they enter the house
To our peaceful home,
Front roads.

I sit silently next to you,
But sometimes it seems
Why am I looking through the sights?
That I'm preparing for a fight.

Friends come to grandpa
Celebrate the Victory.
There are fewer and fewer of them
But I believe:
They will come again.

Grandfather's portrait

V. Turov

Grandmother put on the medals
And now she’s so beautiful!
She celebrates Victory Day
Remembering the great war.
Grandma's face is sad.
There is a soldier's triangle on the table.
Grandfather's letter from the front
Even now it is very painful for her to read.
We look at grandfather's portrait
And we shake hands with my brother:
- Well, what kind of grandfather is this?
He's still just a boy!

Eternal flame

Above the grave, in a quiet park
The tulips bloomed brightly.
The fire is always burning here,
A Soviet soldier is sleeping here.

We bowed low
At the foot of the obelisk,
Our wreath blossomed on it
Hot, fiery fire.

Soldiers defended the world
They gave their lives for us.
Let's keep it in our hearts
Bright memory of them!

Like a continuation of the life of a soldier
Under the stars of a peaceful power
Flowers burn on military graves
Wreaths of unfading glory.

Salute to Victory

Salute and glory to the anniversary
Forever a memorable day!
Salute to Victory in Berlin
The power of fire has been trampled by fire!
Salute to her big and small

To her soldiers and generals,
To the heroes fallen and alive,
Firework!

Dead and alive

To the dead -
Be constantly on duty
They live in street names and epics.
Their exploits are holy beauty
Artists will display it in paintings.
Alive -
To honor heroes, not to forget,
Keep their names in immortal lists,
Remind everyone of their courage
And lay flowers at the foot of the obelisks!

We need peace

Everyone needs peace and friendship,
Peace is more important than anything in the world,
On a land where there is no war,
The children sleep peacefully at night.
Where the guns don't thunder,
The sun is shining brightly in the sky.
We need peace for all the guys.
We need peace on the entire planet!

Let there be peace!

Let the machine guns not fire,
And the menacing guns are silent,

May the sky be blue
Let the bombers run over it
They don't fly to anyone
People and cities don’t die...
Peace is always needed on earth!

Victory Day

N. Tomilina

Victory Day May 9 -
A holiday of peace in the country and spring.
On this day we remember the soldiers,
Those who did not return to their families from the war.

On this holiday we honor our grandfathers,
Defending their native country,
To those who gave Victory to the peoples
And who returned peace and spring to us!

Who was in the war

My daughter once turned to me:
- Dad, tell me, who was in the war?

Grandfather Lenya - military pilot -
There was a combat aircraft flying in the sky.

Grandfather Zhenya was a paratrooper.
He didn't like to remember the war

And he answered my questions:
- The battles were very difficult.

Grandma Sonya worked as a doctor,
She saved the lives of soldiers under fire.

Great-grandfather Alyosha in cold winter
He fought with enemies near Moscow itself.

Great-grandfather Arkady died in the war.
Everyone served their homeland well.

Many people did not return from the war.
It's easier to answer who wasn't there.

Congratulations to grandfather on May 9

Congratulations grandpa
Happy Victory Day.
It's even good
That he wasn't there.

Was then as I am now,
Vertically challenged.
Although he did not see the enemy -
I just hated it!

He worked like a big man
For a handful of bread,
The day of Victory was approaching,
Even though he was not a fighter.

Steadfastly endured all hardships,
Paying with childhood
To live and grow in peace
His grandson is wonderful.

So that in abundance and love
Enjoyed life
So that I don't see the war,
My grandfather saved the Fatherland.

Medals

A veteran is a seasoned fighter,
I've seen a lot in my life.
He is brave in battle
Defended his country!

On Victory Day they sparkled
There are medals on his chest.
There are medals on his chest!
My sister and I counted them.

We celebrate Victory Day

A. Igebaev

We celebrate Victory Day,
He comes with flowers and banners.
We are all heroes today
We call by name.

We know: it’s not at all easy
He came to us - Victory Day.
This day has been conquered
Our dads, our grandfathers.

And that's why today
They put on medals.
We, going to the holiday with them,
They sang a sonorous song.

We dedicate this song
To our dads, our grandfathers.
To our beloved Motherland
Glory, glory on Victory Day!

"Friends come to grandpa"

Vladimir Stepanov

Friends come to grandpa
They come on Victory Day.
I like to listen for a long time
Their songs and conversations.

I don't ask them to repeat
Secret stories:
After all, repeating means losing again
Military comrades,
Which are still being sought
Military awards,
One is a sergeant, the other is a major.
And more ordinary people.

I don't ask for them every year
Tell me first
About how the army advances
I walked with losses.
About what kind of gunfire there is,
How bullets are aimed at the heart...
“War,” they sigh, “war.”
Do you remember how in July?”

I'm just sitting next to you
But sometimes it seems
Why am I looking through the sights?
That I'm preparing for a fight.

What do you want. Who writes letters to me?
They are no longer waiting for an answer,
That even summer is at war -
A completely different summer.

Friends come to grandpa
Celebrate the Victory.
There are fewer and fewer of them, but I believe:
They will come, they will come...

No, the word “peace” will hardly remain

V. Berestov

No, the word “peace” will hardly remain,
When there will be wars people will not know.
After all, what was previously called the world,
Everyone will just call it life.

And only children, experts on the past,
Having fun playing war,
Having run around, they will remember this word,
With whom they died in the old days.

Boy from the village of Popovki

S. Ya. Marshak

Among the snowdrifts and funnels
In a village destroyed to the ground,
The child stands with his eyes closed -
The last citizen of the village.

Scared white kitten
A fragment of a stove and pipe -
And that's all that survived
From my former life and hut.

White-headed Petya is standing
And cries like an old man without tears,
He lived in the world for three years,
And what I learned and endured.

In his presence they burned down his hut,
They drove mom away from the yard,
And in a hastily dug grave
The murdered sister lies.

Don't let go of your rifle, soldier,
Until you take revenge on the enemy
For the blood shed in Popovka,
And for the child in the snow.

The beauty that nature gives us...

A. Surkov

The beauty that nature gives us,
The soldiers defended themselves in the fire,
May day of forty-fifth year
Became the last point in the war.

For everything that we have now,
For every happy hour we have,
Because the sun shines on us,
Thanks to the valiant soldiers -
To our grandfathers and fathers.

No wonder there are fireworks today
In honor of our Fatherland,
In honor of our soldiers!

Victory Day

Many years ago
It was a great Victory Day.
Grandfathers remember Victory Day
Each of the grandchildren knows.
Bright holiday Victory Day
The whole country celebrates.
Our grandparents
They put on orders.
We are talking about the first Victory Day
We love listening to their story
How our grandfathers fought
For the whole world and for all of us.

Even then we were not in the world...

M. Vladimov

When fireworks thundered from one end to another.
Soldiers, you gave to the planet
Great May, victorious May!
Even then we were not in the world,
When in a military storm of fire,
Deciding the fate of future centuries,
You fought a holy battle!

Even then we were not in the world,
When you came home with Victory.
Soldiers of May, glory to you forever
From all the earth, from all the earth!

Thank you, soldiers.
For life, for childhood and spring,
For the silence
For a peaceful home,
For the world we live in!

When you went into mortal combat...

A. Voskoboynikov

When you went into mortal combat,
Faithful sons of the fatherland,
About a peaceful and happy life
You dreamed during the war.

You saved the world from fascism,
You have obscured us with your hearts.
I bow to you deeply,
We are eternally indebted to you.

You passed heroically
With battles all four years,
You were able to defeat the enemy
And earn the love of the people.

Thank you, fathers and grandfathers,
Thank you brothers and sons
For your gift for Victory Day,
For the main holiday of the whole country!

The sun disappeared behind the mountain...

A. Kovalenkov

The sun disappeared behind the mountain,

And along the steppe road

From the heat, from the evil heat
The tunics on the shoulders were faded;
Your battle banner
The soldiers shielded themselves from their enemies with their hearts.

They did not spare lives
Defending the father's land - the native country;
Defeated, won
All enemies in the battles for the holy Motherland.

The sun disappeared behind the mountain,
The river riffles have become foggy,
And along the steppe road
Soviet soldiers were walking home from the war.

May the sky be blue...

N. Naydenova

May the sky be blue
Let there be no smoke in the sky,
Let the menacing guns be silent
And the machine guns don’t fire,
So that people, cities live...
Peace is always needed on earth!

In a clearing, close to the camp...

V. Fetisov

In a clearing, close to the camp,
Where wild rosemary blooms all summer,
Looking at the road from the obelisk
Infantryman, sailor and pilot.

Imprint of a happy childhood
Preserved on the faces of the soldiers,
But they can’t escape anywhere now
From the military severity of dates.

“In the same green June,”
An elderly foreman told us,
She took them, cheerful and young,
And the war did not bring me home.

At dawn, holding the machine guns,
The soldiers were going to storm the heights..."

To our ageless counselors
We placed flowers at our feet.

At the obelisk

The spruce froze on guard,
The blue of the peaceful sky is clear.
Years go by. In an alarming hum
The war is far away.
But here, at the edges of the obelisk,
Bowing my head in silence,
We hear the roar of tanks close
And a soul-tearing explosion of bombs.
We see them - Russian soldiers,
That in that distant terrible hour
They paid with their lives
For bright happiness for us...

Name

S. Pogorelovsky

To the broken pillbox
The guys come
They bring flowers
To the soldier's grave.
He fulfilled his duty
Before our people.
But what's his name?
Where is he from?
Was he killed in the attack?
Died in defense?
Not a word from the grave
He won’t let it slip.
After all, there is no inscription.
Unanswered grave.
To know, in that terrible hour
There was no time for inscriptions.

To the local old ladies
The guys come in -
Find out, ask them,
What once was.
- What happened?!
Oh, darlings!..
Rumble, battle!
The little soldier remained
Alone surrounded.
One -
And didn't give up
Fascist army.
Fought heroically
And he died heroically.
One -
And he kept it
Come on, the whole company!..
He was young, dark-haired,
Short in stature.
Drink before the fight
He ran into the village,
That's what he said, like,
What comes from the Urals.
We ourselves are heartfelt
They buried here -
At the old pine tree
In an unmarked grave.

To the rural post office
The guys are coming.
Registered letter
Will find the addressee.
They will deliver to the capital
His postmen.
The letter will be read
Minister of Defense.
The lists will be reviewed again,
Behind the record is a record...
And here they are -
First name, last name, address!
And will form a column
Countless heroes,
There will be another one -
Posthumously,
Immortal.

Old lady from the Urals
The guys will hug.
They will take her to her son,
To the soldier's grave
Whose bright name
Covered with flowers...
No one is forgotten
And nothing is forgotten!

Let children not know war

I haven't seen the war, but I know
How difficult it was for the people
And hunger, and cold, and horror -
They got to experience everything.

Let them live peacefully on the planet,
Let children not know war,
Let the bright sun shine!
We should be a friendly family!

Salute to Victory

Salute and glory to the anniversary
Forever a memorable day!
Salute to Victory in Berlin
The power of fire has been trampled by fire!
Salute to her big and small
To the creators who walked the same path,
To her soldiers and generals,
To the heroes fallen and alive,
Firework!

9th May

May.
Russia.
Spring is blooming.
The war died down long ago.
And today at the mass graves
Let us remember those who saved our lives.

Victory

Frontline songs,
Military awards,
Red tulips,
Veterans' meetings
And fireworks in half the sky,
Huge as Victory.

Day of Remembrance

Victory

My great grandfather
Told me about the war.
How they fought in a tank,
Burnt in fire
Lost friends
Defending the country.
Victory has come
In the forty-fifth year!

Evening sky
Victory fireworks.
Russian soldiers
Our sleep is protected.
I will grow up -
I'll tell my children
Like their great-grandfathers
Defended the country!

To the victorious army

The whole planet saw
In clouds of fire and smoke -
Your glory is immortal
The will is indestructible.

Your strength is steel
Moved like an avalanche
Along the banks of the Danube,
Through the squares of Berlin.

We were on fire,
We slept in the snowdrifts,
Many have grown old
Many died in the field.

Much is now a memory
Can't restore.
A new day is coming -
The old one will live with glory.

Only time doesn't dare
Take the words out of the song
Only good seed
It comes out again and again -

In new regiments and companies,
In our children and grandchildren,
In your new campaigns,
In new iron marches.

I see other faces
Bayonet and line of the Charter.
Old glory lasts
New glory is brewing!

Tankman's story

Alexander Tvardovsky

What’s his name, I forgot to ask him.

About ten or twelve years old. Bedovy,
Of those who are the leaders of children,
From those in the front-line towns
They greet us like dear guests.

The car is surrounded in parking lots,
Carrying water to them in buckets is not difficult,
Bring soap and towel to the tank
And unripe plums are put in...

There was a battle going on outside. The enemy fire was terrible,
We made our way forward to the square.
And he nails - you can’t look out of the towers, -
And the devil will understand where he’s hitting from.

Here, guess which house is behind
He sat down - there were so many holes,
And suddenly a boy ran up to the car:
- Comrade commander, comrade commander!

I know where their gun is. I scouted...
I crawled up, they were over there in the garden...
- But where, where?.. - Let me go
On the tank with you. I'll give it straight away.

Well, no fight awaits. - Get in here, buddy! —
And so the four of us roll to the place.
The boy is standing - mines, bullets whistling,
And only the shirt has a bubble.

We've arrived. - Here. - And from a turn
We go to the rear and give full throttle.
And this gun, along with the crew,
We sank into loose, greasy black soil.

I wiped off the sweat. Smothered by fumes and soot:
There was a big fire going from house to house.
And I remember I said: “Thank you, lad!” —
And he shook hands like a comrade...

It was a difficult fight. Everything now is as if from sleep,
And I just can’t forgive myself:
From thousands of faces I would recognize the boy,
But what’s his name, I forgot to ask him.

Children sing about war

(Dedication of the veteran poet to schoolchildren)

Schoolchildren today about the war
Sang songs and read poems
In a small cozy school hall,
In extraordinary silence.
Veterans, without hiding their tears,
We listened to the children and remembered
The songs that were sung at the halt,
Despite the noise of military thunderstorms.
Resurrected in the memory of the soldiers
The roar of bombs, victories over enemies,
Bright in a deadly hurricane
The exploits of husbands, sons, fathers.
These children are no worse than us -
Children of wartime hard times.
Naughty people? So, well, they are children.
Is childhood without mischief?
An inquisitive look, like a big question,
Thirst for knowledge, thirst for hobbies,
Impatience of moralizing...
Did anyone grow up differently?
How they sing! And in their eyes -
Pain for troubles, joy for victories,
Pride in Russia and our grandfathers,
Defending the Motherland from evil.
To the dead and the living - bow to the ground,
Poems for great-grandchildren and songs for grandchildren.
The children will get up, God forbid, but if
The enemy will go to war against Russia.

Muscovites

Evgeniy Vinokurov

In the fields beyond the sleepy Vistula
They lie in the damp ground
Earring with Malaya Bronnaya
And Vitka and Mokhovaya.

And somewhere in a crowded world
Which year in a row
Alone in an empty apartment
Their mothers don't sleep.

The light of the lamp is inflamed
Burning over Moscow
In the window on Malaya Bronnaya,
In the window on Mokhovaya.

Friends won't get up. In District
The movie goes on without them.
Girls, their friends,
Everyone has been married for a long time.

The bottomless vault is burning,
And the night rustles with leaves
Above the quiet Malaya Bronnaya,
Above the quiet Mokhovaya.

Don't play war, boys.

V. Vologdin
To the boys playing war
I will hold it out in my big palms
Two dozen taken at random
Tin little soldiers.

Look carefully, my friend,
This one has no arms, and this one has no legs.
The third is black, his teeth are just like chalk.
Apparently he burned alive in the tank.

And the fourth, orders are like a shield -
He was killed in Berlin in May.
And here is this one in the thick dawn
In 1943 he drowned in the Dnieper.

The sixth has tears in his eyes,
Forty years since my eyes went out...
I’ll give a handful of soldiers to the guys,
Don't play war, boys.

True story for children

Sergey Mikhalkov

I am writing this story to children...
__________

Summer night, at dawn,
Hitler gave the troops an order
And he sent German soldiers
Against all Soviet people -
This means - against us.

He wanted free people
Turn the hungry into slaves
To be deprived of everything forever.
And the stubborn and rebels,
Those who did not fall to their knees,
Exterminate every single one!

He ordered them to destroy
Trampled and burned
Everything that we kept together
They took better care of their eyes,
So that we endure need,
They didn’t dare sing our songs
Near his house,
So that there is everything for the Germans,
For foreign fascists,
And for the Russians and for others,
For peasants and workers -
Nothing!

"No! - we told the fascists, -
Our people will not tolerate
So that Russian bread is fragrant
Called by the word "brot".

We live in a Soviet country,
We recognize the German language,
Italian, Danish, Swedish
And we admit Turkish
Both English and French
But in my native land in Russian
We write, we think, we eat.

Then we can only breathe freely,
If we hear native speech,
Speech in Russian,
And in his ancient capital,
Both in the village and in the village,
And far from home.

Where is the strength in the world?
So that she can break us,
Bent us under the yoke
In those regions where on the days of victory
Our great-grandparents
Have you feasted so many times?

And from sea to sea
The Bolsheviks rose up
And from sea to sea
The Russian regiments stood up.
We stood up, united with the Russians,
Belarusians, Latvians,
People of free Ukraine,
Both Armenians and Georgians,
Moldovans, Chuvashs -

All Soviet peoples
Against a common enemy
Everyone who loves freedom
And Russia is expensive!

And when Russia stood up
In this difficult menacing hour,
“Everyone - to the front!” - Moscow said.
“We’ll give everything!” - said Kuzbass.

“Never,” said the mountains, “
The Ural has never been in debt!” -
"Enough oil for the engines,
I’ll help!” - said Baku.

"I own riches,
You can’t count them, even if you count them forever!
I won’t regret anything!” -
This is how Altai responded.

"We are left homeless
Ready to welcome you into your home,
Shelter will be given to orphans!” -
Meeting the disadvantaged
Replying to Kazakhstan,
Uzbekistan swore.

"Every faithful warrior will
And fed and watered,
The whole country is shod and dressed.” -
“Everyone - to the front!” - Moscow
said.
"All! - the country answered her. -
Everything is for future victories!”

Days and weeks flew by
This was not the first year of war.
Showed himself in action
Our people are heroic.

You can't even tell it in a fairy tale,
Neither words nor pen,
How helmets flew from enemies
Near Moscow and Orel.

How, advancing to the west,
Red fighters fought -
Our army is dear,
Our brothers and fathers.

How the partisans fought. -
The Motherland is proud of them!
How wounds heal
Battle cities.

You can’t describe what they were like in this one
All the fights there were.
The Germans were beaten here and there,
As soon as they beat you, fireworks!

These fireworks are from Moscow
Were heard by everyone in the world,
Both friend and enemy heard them.
If there are fireworks, that means -
Over some roof somewhere
The red flag waved again.

Look at the school map,
Where were we in February?
How many miles did we walk in March?
In your native land?

Here we stood in April,
Here the troops met May,
Here we took so many prisoners,
So try to calculate it!

Glory to our generals,
Glory to our admirals
And to the ordinary soldiers -
On foot, swimming, horseback,
Tempered in hot battles!
Glory to the fallen and the living,
Thank you to them from the bottom of my heart!

Let's not forget those heroes
What lies in the damp ground,
Giving my life on the battlefield
For the people - for you and me.

Wherever we hit the enemy,
Wherever the enemy retreats,
Always remembered about the home front
Our soldier and general:

"Yes!
You can't finish off the fascists
And cleanse the world of them
Without Moscow tractor drivers,
Without Ivanovo weavers,
Without the one who is day and night
There is coal in the mines,
Sows grain, sharpens shells,
Melts steel, forges armor.”

You can't tell you were in this one
All miracles about our rear,
Apparently, the time will come,
And about honest workers,
Famous, unknown
Our people will compose songs.

Without a gun and without a grenade
And away from the front
These people are like soldiers
We were also at war.

We will never forget
Their heroic deeds.
Honor and glory to these people
And great praise!

One by one, on foot,
Over rocks and grass
They drive prisoners under escort,
They are driving to Mother Moscow.

There are not ten or twenty of them,
There are not two hundred and fifty of them -
Maybe the army will gather
Officers and soldiers.

Dust swirls in clouds
Over the front road...
Why are you unhappy, Krauts?
Why did you hang your head?

You didn't wait, you didn't guess
Neither in a dream nor in reality -
Just like we said
You will end up in Moscow.

Trophies are being carried past you
To our Russian museums,
To show people
What did you want to take us with?

And cars are rushing towards me
Our valiant regiments.
- How far is it to Berlin? -
People are shouting at you from the trucks.

Dust swirls in clouds...
Along the roads, here and there,
Murderers and Murderers
They are being taken prisoner under escort...

Dust... Dust... Dust... Dust...

I continue the story for the children!

Under the victorious roar of guns
On these stormy days
In the sea, in the sky and on land
We didn't fight alone.

I shook hands with English fighters
Russian army soldiers,
And distant San Francisco
Turned out to be just as close
Like Moscow and Leningrad.

Next to us, together with us,
Like a stream breaking the ice,
For the sake of liberty and honor
And the people's holy vengeance
The people stood behind the people.

We, said the Yugoslavs,
Let's not give up our glory!
We will not be under the yoke! -
And the Slovaks said:
- Our will was crushed!
How can we not fight! -
Break away from Berlin
Italians and Romanians:
- Stop fighting for Berlin! -
Bulgarians are also reluctant
To die for a German for nothing:
- Let one go to the bottom!

A Frenchman will live in Paris,
In Prague - Czech, in Athens - Greek.
Not offended, not humiliated
He will be a proud man!

Cities will breathe freely -
No raids, no alarms!
Go anywhere
On any of all roads!..

One day the children went to bed -
The windows are all darkened
And we woke up at dawn -
There is light in the windows and there is no war!

You don't have to say goodbye anymore
And don’t accompany me to the front,
And don’t be afraid of raids,
And don't wait for night worries.

Blackout canceled
And now for many years
For people only for treatment
Blue light will be needed.

People celebrate Victory!
The news flies everywhere:
From the front they go, they go, they go
Our brothers and fathers!

Everyone has medals on their chests,
And many have orders.
Where haven't they been?
And what time did they give?
The war did not abandon them!

You can’t tell you were in this one,
What kind of life did they lead?
How they got cold in the Carpathians,
Where they swam by river, where they swam by sea,
How they lived in eight capitals,
How many countries have you walked through?

Like on the streets of Berlin
In the hour of fighting they found the Reichstag,
Like two faithful sons above him -
Russian son and Georgian son -
They hoisted a red flag.

From Berlin to Amur,
And then to Port Arthur,
What lies by the warm waters,
We visited Khingan,
What always stands in the fog,
And on the Pacific
We finished our hike.

Neighbor says to neighbor:
- As soon as I get home to myself,
I'll go straight to school
And collective farm children -
Tanek, Manek, Fedek, Grishek -
I'll start learning again!

Well, I'll come home, -
Neighbor says to neighbor,
After the front I’ll rest,
I'll wear it for another week
A tunic and an overcoat,
I'll start building in the city,
What was destroyed in the war!

And the collective farm misses me, -
The third one from the shelf answers, -
My collective farm near Kostroma.
I've been going for eight days
Yes, I count all the minutes -
Soon, soon home!

Cars run day and night,
Columns are walking along the highway
Frontline trucks,
And the accordions sing
About the affairs of front-line soldiers...

You can’t describe what they were like in this one
(Even a poem won’t help!),
How proud the soldiers were
That the people meet them
They are our protectors!

And mixed on the platforms
With a noisy, joyful crowd:
Sons in military uniforms,
And husbands in military uniforms,
And fathers in military uniforms,
That they came home from the war.

Hello, victorious warrior,
My comrade, friend and brother,
My protector, my savior -
Red Army soldiers!

Throughout the war in any village,
In every house and hut
People thought with excitement
Remembered with admiration
And with love about you.

And everywhere they were proud of you,
And you can't find your family
There is no home where they would not be stored
Your photos:

In modest frames above the bed,
On the chest of drawers, on the wall,
Where are you filmed in your overcoat,
Shot on foot or on horseback,

Is it filmed alone or with a crew?
In a combat situation -
Are you an officer or, let's say,
Private infantryman.

Finally at the desired hour
Our dream come true -
At the hour of the long-awaited victory
You have returned to your father's house!

But there are still quite a few of them
Officers and soldiers
whose death has passed,
But he was hit by a shell in battle.

If you meet someone like this,
Young but gray-haired
Combat veteran
(Sign of a wound on the chest),
Do him a favor
Help him like a friend
Don't pass by indifferently!..

They take on things boldly
Well done front-line soldiers,
And in the country any business
It’s convenient for them, it’s out of their hands!

We need all Soviet citizens
Feed, dress, put on shoes,
So that everyone is happy
From the heart, not just any way!

If earlier "self-propelled guns"
Supplied by another plant
Then today the frying pans
Launched at full speed.

And the platforms with the forest are running,
There - with ore, and there - with coal,
From Donbass to Dneproges
Night after night, day after day.

Yes! We have one concern
And everyone has the same dream,
To the sunny heights
The country has risen again -
Strong, glorious and mighty
From the capital to the village,
Much more beautiful, much better
What ever was.

The days of fighting are over,
We fought well -
Like soldiers, they performed
An order from our Motherland.
And today, in a peaceful hour,
Dear Motherland,
Rely on us again!

With everything that the Motherland has,
Together the people own
Counting the fields, forests,
Cornfields, pastures and waters,
Mines, mines and factories
And as an example to other nations
He manages them himself!

And we are in power
Not a landowner, not a banker,
And a simple worker is a master
And the collective farm foreman.
Chosen by the people
Our Soviet deputy
Not of noble birth
And he is not rich in gold.

He is rich in his freedom
And the consciousness of
What on behalf of the people
He decides his fate!

He is rich in his love
To that land that in a terrible hour,
Sprinkled with your blood,
He, like his own mother, saved.

Two chambers will meet,
Deputies will sit next to you:
Belarusian and Armenian,
Ukrainian, Moldovan,
Ossetian, Kazakh, Tatar,
Both Estonian and Georgian -
All nations as one!

There will be quite a few of them,
Sons and daughters:
And soldiers and commanders,
And other heroes!..

With our beloved party
We are not separated anywhere.
She stands for the people
With her, the Motherland is strong.

Who is unknown today
But fearless, brave and honest,
One who loves his people
And he follows the party,
Who can do anything?
He will help his country
In the region where he lives!

So let's help our government
In cities and villages
Bringing happiness to the people
On your native land!

Forever little sister

Tatiana Gusarova

In that forty-first year, she
Getting up from my school desk,
She went to the front at the age of sixteen,
To become a nurse, voluntarily.

As in the horror of those terrible years
Don't lose faith in life,
We don't understand, we haven't known troubles
THIS is the size.

Under a hail of bullets, forgetting about fear,
She had the strength
Soldier on thin shoulders
She carried me out of the battle.

Savior-angel for fighters:
- Some water... drink... some water...
- I don’t see... it hurts... my face burns...
- I won’t die, sister?!

The war is long over.
That girl with the pigtail
Someone's mother, daughter, wife,
But forever - sister!

I am the ancestors of the Slavic blood

Yuri Solovyov

I am the ancestors of the Slavic blood.
I am the soldier's widow's tear,
Overgrown trench blade of grass,
The dying battle is a thunderstorm.

I am the moan of a young soldier
Killed in the first battle.
I am the feeling of sudden loss
When they give a funeral.

I am the stars on the obelisks,
The tenacity of Soviet soldiers
Those killed near Naro-Fominsk,
Without taking a step back.

I am the bitter joy of Victory!
I am proud of the Russian people!
And no matter what I do
And wherever I am,
All this lives with me!

An experienced company commander and an uncomplaining private

Yuri Solovyov

To battle!
- For the Motherland!
..and resignedly
The private ran towards the enemy...
And he was mowed down along with the company commander
Merciless machine gun fire,
By the ravine...
Forever…
Not buried - too troublesome
This is what happened during the war...
Company daisies sprout,
The private is sleeping, covered with earth.
.............................. ...........
Along the foggy lowland where they were
Two boys were killed then
Mares wander with foals,
...the haystacks breathe like rotten clover.

Grave mound

Yuri Solovyov

An unknown soldier lies
killed in a terrible war,
under the apple tree there is a hillock without dates,
no one will write to relatives...

There is such silence,
no one lives in the area,
just an old lady alone
The ninth of May will come.

She will unravel the knot
with a tired trembling hand,
put a bag of toffee,
pray for peace.

Smoothing the grass with your hand,
the old lady will cry without tears,
she will remember her son in reality
and the smell of birth hair.
………………………………….
A churchyard overgrown with weeds,
There is a ruined temple near the river.
Nettle grows to full height
In places familiar from childhood.

East - West

Yuri Solovyov

Hans fought his way to Ost,
To Moscow, in a straight line, forty miles,
On his chest is a knight's cross
For Brest, left in ruins.

From Siberia, leaving my mother there,
Vanya went to defend the country,
The train rushed the recruit to the West,
The Orthodox guy had a cross.

And they collided on the bridge,
In hand-to-hand combat for Moscow.
Ost na Vest,
life for life,
cross to cross.
...they won't see any more brides.

Bad news flies with the funeral,
Russian mother on Ost,
And the German one is on the West.
……………………………………..
Flowers grow through the ribs near the bridge,
Soldiers are sleeping in the ground...
under the hill...
Without a cross.

I'm leaving the war, I'm going home...

Yuri Solovyov

Rifle company private
I'm leaving the war, I'm going home.
I laugh and cry at myself,
- Alive?..alive.
- Home?.. home.
And they echo behind
Soldiers who became the earth
- Alive...alive...home...home. ..

The village sleeps basking in the fog,
At the temple, a stork waits for dawn.
I'm incredibly lucky
That overpowered pain and evil
And surviving out of spite,
I'm alive...and I'm seeing it again.
..............................

Rifle company private
Came from the war, came home...
...home.

Veterans of the Great Patriotic War

Yuri Solovyov

How few of them are left on earth
My legs can't walk and my wounds bother me,
And at night they smoke, so that in a nightmare,
Again they were not shot at on the battlefield.

Don't let your grandchildren suffer from war
And the dirt will not touch her descendants,
Let the former company sergeant smoke
And listens to his great-granddaughter laugh.

Fragile butterfly of silence

Yuri Solovyov

Among death
Bloody crumble,
People, believe
Something good!
And maybe
After the war,
On a small hill in the sandbox
A fragile butterfly of silence will settle.
I really want to believe this!..

Victory Day in the middle and senior groups of preschool educational institutions. Poetry

Overcoat

- Why are you saving your overcoat? -

I asked my dad. —

Why don't you tear it up and burn it? -

I asked my dad.

After all, she is both dirty and old,

Take a closer look,

There's a hole in the back,

Take a closer look!

“That’s why I take care of it,”

Dad answers me, -

That’s why I won’t tear it up, I won’t burn it, -

Dad answers me. —

That's why she's dear to me

What's in this overcoat

We went, my friend, against the enemy

And they defeated him!

The country was blooming. But the enemy is around the corner

He carried out a raid and went to war against us.

At that terrible hour,

Becoming a steel wall,

All the youth took up arms,

To defend our native Fatherland.

War. Brutal war

This is not the first month...

Life is tense, like a string,

The capital is in danger.

Firework

Hurry, hurry, get dressed!

Call the guys quickly!

In honor of the big holiday

The guns are firing.

Everything was quiet around

And suddenly - fireworks! Firework!

Rockets burst into flames in the sky

Both there and here!

Above the square

Over the rooftops

Above festive Moscow

Soars higher and higher

The fountain of lights is alive!

To the street, to the street

Everyone is running happily

They shout: “Hurray!”

Admiring

For the holiday

Peaceful rhyme

One two three four five!

Red, white, yellow, blue!

Copper, iron, aluminum!

Sun, air and water!

Mountains, rivers, cities!

Work, fun, sweet dreams!

And let the war come out!

Let there be peace

May the sky be blue

Let there be no smoke in the sky,

Let the menacing guns be silent

And the machine guns don’t fire,

So that people, cities live...

Peace is always needed on earth!

Remember it forever! (excerpt)

Wherever you go or go,

But stop here

To the grave this way

Bow with all your heart.

Whoever you are -

Fisherman, miner,

Scientist or shepherd, -

Remember forever: here lies

Your very best friend.

For both you and me

He did everything he could:

He didn’t spare himself in battle

And saved the Motherland.

Monument to Glory

In a clearing, close to the camp,

Where wild rosemary blooms all summer,

Looking at the road from the obelisk

Infantryman, sailor and pilot.

Imprint of a happy childhood

Preserved on the faces of the soldiers,

But they can’t escape anywhere now

From the military severity of dates.

“Here in the same green June,”

An elderly foreman told us,

She took them, cheerful and young,

And the war did not bring me home.

At dawn, holding the machine guns,

The soldiers were going to storm the heights...”

To our ageless counselors

We placed flowers at our feet.

World

No, the word “peace” will hardly remain,

When there will be wars people will not know.

After all, what was previously called the world,

Everyone will just call it life.

And only children, experts on the past,

Having fun playing war,

Having run around, they will remember this word,

With whom they died in the old days.

Victory Day

May holiday -

Victory Day

The whole country celebrates.

Our grandfathers put on

Military orders.

The road calls them in the morning

To the ceremonial parade,

And thoughtfully from the threshold

N. Tomilina

Victory Day

Victory Day May 9 –
A holiday of peace in the country and spring.
On this day we remember the soldiers,
Those who did not return to their families from the war.

On this holiday we honor our grandfathers,
Defending their native country,
To those who gave Victory to the peoples
And who returned peace and spring to us!

Sergey Mikhalkov

The war ended in victory.

The war ended in victory.
Those years are behind us.
Medals and orders are burning
On many people's chests.

Who wears the military order
For exploits in battle,
And who is for the feat of labor
In your native land.

Timofey Belozerov

Victory Day

May holiday -
Victory Day
The whole country celebrates.
Our grandfathers put on
Military orders.

The road calls them in the morning
To the ceremonial parade.
And thoughtfully from the threshold
The grandmothers look after them.

Mikhail Vladimirov

Even then we were not in the world

When fireworks thundered from one end to another.
Soldiers, you gave to the planet
Great May, victorious May!

Even then we were not in the world,
When in a military storm of fire,
Deciding the fate of future centuries,
You fought a holy battle!

Even then we were not in the world,
When you came home with Victory.
Soldiers of May, glory to you forever
From all the earth, from all the earth!

Thank you, soldiers.
For life, for childhood and spring,
For the silence
For a peaceful home,
For the world we live in!

Olga Vysotskaya

Firework

Hurry, hurry, get dressed!
Call the guys quickly!
In honor of Victory Day
The guns are firing.

Everything was quiet around
And suddenly - fireworks! Firework!
Rockets burst into flames in the sky
Both there and here!

Above the square
Over the rooftops
Above festive Moscow
Soaring higher and higher
The fountain of lights is alive!

To the street, to the street
Everyone is running happily
They shout "Hurray"!
Admiring
For the holiday
Firework!

Victory Day

N. Maidanik

Victory Day is a bright holiday,
I'm so happy for him
Because together with my grandfather
I'm going to the parade!

I want to be in the military ranks
Walk with him
Red Victory Banner
Carry with him!

Let my grandfather know -
I'll be in line
I can protect like him
Your homeland!

Sergey Mikhalkov

After the victory

One day the children went to bed -
The windows are all darkened.
And we woke up at dawn -
There is light in the windows - and
No war!

You don't have to say goodbye anymore
And don’t accompany him to the front -
They will return from the front,
We will wait for heroes.

The trenches will be overgrown with grass
At the sites of past battles.
Getting better every year
Hundreds of cities will stand still.

And in good moments
You will remember and I will remember,
Like from fierce enemy hordes
We cleared the edges.

Let's remember everything: how we were friends,
How we put out fires
Like our porch
They drank fresh milk
Gray with dust,
A tired fighter.

Let's not forget those heroes
What lies in the damp ground,
Giving my life on the battlefield
For the people, for you and me...

Glory to our generals,
Glory to our admirals
And to ordinary soldiers -
On foot, swimming, horseback,
Tired, seasoned!
Glory to the fallen and the living -

Thank you to them from the bottom of my heart!

What is Victory Day

A. Usachev

What is Victory Day?
This is the morning parade:
Tanks and missiles are coming,
A line of soldiers is marching.

What is Victory Day?
This is a festive fireworks display:
Fireworks fly into the sky
Scattering here and there.

What is Victory Day?
These are songs at the table,
These are speeches and conversations,
This is my grandfather's album.

These are fruits and sweets,
These are the smells of spring...
What is Victory Day -
This means no war.

We celebrate Victory Day

Abdulkhak Igebaev

We celebrate Victory Day,
He comes with flowers and banners.
We are all heroes today
We call by name.
We know: it’s not at all easy

This day has been conquered
Our dads, our grandfathers.
And that's why today
They put on medals.
We, going to the holiday with them,
They sang a sonorous song.
We dedicate this song
To our dads, our grandfathers.
To our beloved Motherland
Glory, glory on Victory Day!

Ninth of May

P. Sinyavsky

Raising the festive flag to the skies,
Enters the Ninth of May Square.
The city is dressed in full dress,
Even the sun has a solemn color.

This holy, heroic holiday
Great-grandfather and great-grandson share equally.
The whole country wants to embrace the warriors,
Looking at their orders with pride.

And marches in the parade lines
The courage of Brest and Stalingrad.
The military valor of our regiments
It will not fade forever!

Great-grandfathers, soldiers of Victory,
Cast in bronze, sung in songs!
Glory to the dead! Glory to the living!
To all commanders and all privates!

The day over the country is clear like spring,
May marches ring in the heights.
Jumps through the years, across Red Square,
Marshal of Victory on a white horse.

Parade

The pipes are blowing
The drums are thundering -
On Red Square
Military parade.
Printing step
At the Kremlin wall
The officers are coming
Russian country.

Guardsmen pass
In strict terms.
Guards banners
They remember a lot of things.
They are like a soldier
The war burned.
No wonder they shine
They have orders.

The sailors are coming
Along the ringing paving stones -
Like white seagulls
Gloves fly up.
Behind them are the landing forces
Combat ranks,
Berets like the sky
Theirs are blue.

Where once upon a time
The carts were knocking,
They pass in rows
Katyushas and tanks.
Rockets and guns
They are being transported by tractors.
Look what
They are strong!

The heirs pass
Grandfather's glory,
Defenders of our
Soviet state.
And with them on the march -
Our Suvorovites!
And with them on the march -
Our Nakhimovites!

The plaques are polished,
The uniforms are shining.
They will be great
Of them are commanders!
And admirals
And the generals!
Maybe,
There will be marshals
Quite a lot!

Eternal flame

Above the grave, in a quiet park
The tulips bloomed brightly.
The fire is always burning here,
A Soviet soldier is sleeping here.

We bowed low
At the foot of the obelisk,
Our wreath blossomed on it
Hot, fiery fire.

Soldiers defended the world
They gave their lives for us.
Let's keep it in our hearts
Bright memory of them!

Like a continuation of the life of a soldier
Under the stars of a peaceful power
Flowers burn on military graves
Wreaths of unfading glory.

Victory

My great grandfather
Told me about the war.
How they fought in a tank,
Burnt in fire
Lost friends
Defending the country.
Victory has come
In the forty-fifth year!

Evening sky
Victory fireworks.
Russian soldiers
Our sleep is protected.
I will grow up -
I'll tell my children
Like their great-grandfathers
Defended the country!

On Victory Day

The soldier received a task,
On Victory Day over Germany:
“So that the enemy surrenders quickly,
Raise the Soviet flag."

He took a bosom friend,
To combat matters familiar,
To take the last battle,
On the front road.

Bullets rain down in dense hail.
Bombs are exploding somewhere nearby.
It's hard to climb onto the roof of a building,
To complete the task.

But training saves
Combat training.
And the Reichstag was defeated,
And the flag flies above it!

A flag from a front-line brother.
A flag that has absorbed the blood of a soldier.
The flag is a fighter, and the flag is a hero,
Red flag of the native country!

Let's remember the heroes!

Let us remember the heroes who did not return from the war
And veterans who have passed away over the years,
Let us remember all those to whom the word “VICTORY”
It was more necessary than a crust of bread!

Our deepest bow to you, dear ones!
Roses, tulips, wild flowers,
In the sky - fireworks and speeches about the main thing:
A feat of warriors, a glorious feat!

Victory Day

We celebrate Victory Day,
He comes with flowers and banners.
We are all heroes today
We call by name.
We know: it’s not at all easy
He came to us - Victory Day.
This day has been conquered
Our dads, our grandfathers.
And that's why today
They put on medals.
We, going to the holiday with them,
They sang a sonorous song.
We dedicate this song
To our dads, our grandfathers.
To our beloved Motherland
Glory, glory on Victory Day!

Victory Day

At the parade

Rejoices, celebrating the Victory,
My city is in a colorful glow,
And at the parade with my grandfather
We walk hand in hand.
Grandfather remembers how, in the hard years,
He was eager to fight for his homeland.
For the sake of life and freedom
His fellow countryman died.
How the Nazis burned our villages,
They wanted to burn the cities...
And now grandfather is cheerful -
A terrible disaster has passed.
A bright star flashed
Behind her, others began to shine.
I will never forget,
How our grandfathers fought!

What kind of holiday?

There are festive fireworks in the sky,
Fireworks here and there.
The whole country congratulates
Glorious veterans.

And the blooming spring
Gives them tulips
Gives white lilac.
What a glorious day in May?

Victory

Frontline songs,
Military awards,
Red tulips,
Veterans' meetings
And fireworks in half the sky,
Huge as Victory.

Old photo

(S. Pivovarov)

Photograph on the wall -
There are memories of the war in the house.
Dimkin's grandfather
On this photo:
With a machine gun near the pillbox,
Hand bandaged
Smiles slightly...

Here for just ten years
Older than Dimka
Dimkin's grandfather.

***

On the radio

Letter I tried
Write without blots:
"Please do
A gift for grandfather..."

Been on the road for a long time
Musical hello.

But here he comes
And my grandfather hugged me -
Came to see him on holiday
9th May
His favorite song
Frontline.

***

At the obelisk

The spruce froze on guard,
The blue of the peaceful sky is clear.
Years go by. In an alarming hum
The war is far away.

But here, at the edges of the obelisk,
Bowing my head in silence,
We hear the roar of tanks close
And a soul-tearing explosion of bombs.

We see them - Russian soldiers,
That in that distant terrible hour
They paid with their lives
For bright happiness for us...

Veteran's Tale

No one is forgotten

(A. Shamarin)

“No one is forgotten and nothing is forgotten” -
Burning inscription on a block of granite.

The wind plays with faded leaves
And the wreaths are covered with cold snow.

But, like fire, at the foot there is a carnation.
No one is forgotten and nothing is forgotten.

Grandpa's friends

May... The birds are chirping with might and main,
And the parade is going on in the capital.
Grandfathers wear orders.
Happy Victory Day!

Friends come to grandpa
They come on Victory Day.
I like to listen for a long time
Their songs and conversations.

Burning gold in the sun
Military awards,
And they enter the house
To our peaceful home,
Front roads.

I sit silently next to you,
But sometimes it seems
Why am I looking through the sights?
That I'm preparing for a fight.

Friends come to grandpa
Celebrate the Victory.
There are fewer and fewer of them
But I believe:
They will come again.

We bowed low
At the foot of the obelisk,
Our wreath blossomed on it
Hot, fiery fire.

Soldiers defended the world
They gave their lives for us.
Let's keep it in our hearts
Bright memory of them!

Like a continuation of the life of a soldier
Under the stars of a peaceful power
Flowers burn on military graves
Wreaths of unfading glory.

Obelisks

(A. Ternovsky)

***

Dead and alive

To the dead -
Be constantly on duty
They live in street names and epics.
Their exploits are holy beauty
Artists will display it in paintings.
Alive –
To honor heroes, not to forget,
Keep their names in immortal lists,
Remind everyone of their courage
And lay flowers at the foot of the obelisks!

***

We need peace

***

Let there be peace!

Let the machine guns not fire,
And the menacing guns are silent,
Let there be no smoke in the sky,
May the sky be blue
Let the bombers run over it
They don't fly to anyone
People and cities don’t die...
Peace is always needed on earth!

Victory Day
