Notes About The Poem

" GOD AND MAN " MY PHOTO, ©

Towards a Better Tomorrow

Man 

being humbled by an invisible virus

is now on the verge of realizing his limitations 

fact 

that would force him to admit his inadequacy 

and

make him demolish the vain edifice of superiority

that his vanity has built up throughout the millennia

thus 

hopefully, this would lead him to humility 

which

will allow Man to regulate his transient life along
 
the lines of a more rigorous code of ethics 

that

would inspire him to honor and revere God, nature and  

the sanctity of life!

Caren Krutsinger March 27, 2020 at 4:21 PM There are some great lessons to be learned here. 1. The children who have not gone outside and enjoyed the sun in the last few years may actually want to go out there again after the seclusion ban is lifted. 2. Parents are probably disciplining their children, now that they are homeschooling them. This virus has not been all bad.

Sam Kauffman March 23, 2020 at 5:31 PM Applause for your words of wisdom and challenge to many in a world without a moral compass - or any other compass for that matter. As we travel through these dark days, I hope prayer will become an increasingly used tool. Nicely done, Demetrios!

Richard Lamoureux March 23, 2020 at 8:33 AM Perhaps this is Gods way of getting some alone time with us. Demetrios Trifiatis March 23, 2020 at 8:38 AM Perhaps or perhaps HE wishes to express His displeasure for what we are doing to each other and to His creation dear . Richard! Thank you my friend!
