Without Speaking of Love

A stance of acting without proclaiming.

Rather than loudly declaring love or devotion,

it embodies them quietly through conduct.

In just three lines, this poem distills an ethic and a resolve for living.

 

Without Speaking of Love

 

Speak not of love — act.

Speak not of hardship — smile.

Speak not of filial piety — stay beside.
