KrAZ management has congratulated the poetess, the automobile plant’s veteran of labour on her 70th anniversary

19 July, 2017

Пролягло життя, як довга нива –
І тепер, пригадую не раз,
Як прийшла ще юна і наївна,
Як мене прийняв ти — рідний «КрАЗ»!

Ти мене, мов гілку без коріння,
В благодатний ґрунт пересадив.
І тобі я душу, серце, вміння
Віддавала вдячно і завжди.

Я тебе любила не за гроші –
За тепло, за розвиток ідей.
Кузня кадрів тут була хороша,
Де «кували» золотих людей!

Я давно на пенсії, та разом
Із тобою вся душа моя –
І сумую, і радію КрАЗам,
Коли їх, могутніх, бачу я.

У часи такі, найлиховісніші,
Поетичний мій прийми привіт!
Вірю я, що ти, мій «КрАЗе», вистоїш
І не раз іще здивуєш світ!
