Demetrios Trifiatis Poet Quatrain

Notes About The Poem

" RESPECTING NATURE AND LIFE " MY PHOTO, from Parnitha mountains, Greece, my photo, ©

Fill Our Children's Heart With Love

If we infuse love into our children's hearts 

And teach them respect for all nature and life

Soon, many more things for peace we would achieve,

That would end humanity's destructive strife!

* I would like to thank my few good friends for their support, for without them, a POTD wouldn't be possible, as it wouldn't be possible without the right judgment of PS's officials.

Maria Williams July 12, 2019 at 7:04 AM First of all let me congratulate you my dearest Demetrios on a very inspiring poem, which deserves the honor of POTD. We all have a relationship with nature. For some it runs deeper than others but our planet would really benefit from having more people respect and love it. We should make it a practice to teach our children to respect nature and care for the environment. As you put it 'it would end humanity's destructive strife'. Well done....Maria xxx Demetrios Trifiatis July 12, 2019 at 10:51 AM Thank you very much dearest friend, Maria! You always very kind! God bless you! I am happy we see things from the same angle!
