Notes About The Poem

" LOVE'S ESSENCE " MY PHOTO,  ©

Defining Love's Essence

All of Man's
philosophy-literature and
poetry 
has failed to define love

but

a single act of sacrifice
succeeded in designating its
essence   
without ever uttering a single
word! *








© Demetrios Trifiatis
      04 APRIL 2020


* Dedicated to all those people who have sacrificed 
their lives for others to live during coronavirus crisis!
