British poet Ian Henery has likened the bodies found in the sunflower field in eastern Ukraine where Flight MH17 went down to the bodies of soldiers who perished in the Battle of the Somme in 1916. It was a battle of the First World War fought by the British and French armies against the Germans on both sides of the Somme river in France.
Henery, who is married to a Malaysian from Johor Baru, has penned a poem titled “A Passenger Known Unto God” in tribute to victims of the doomed MH17.
