Demetrios Trifiatis Poet Epigram

Why So Much

With tears in my eyes, 

The wise man I implored, to tell me why

So much evil in the world 

Existed,

“Alas, 

into the dark chambers of your heart, 

the answer you will find.” 

Replied he, with a sigh!

Eileen Manassian February 23, 2015 at 8:49 AM Very wise, my dear poet...The answers lies within. If we want to change the world, we must start with ourselves, as you have said in this lovely epigram. Hugs Demetrios Trifiatis February 23, 2015 at 2:38 PM You are absolutely right, my dearest Eileen! Unfortunately, the majority of people wish the world to change but them to remain the same!
