'Searching In Vain' Poem by Linda Winchell

'Searching In Vain'

Rating: 3.5


I've searched in vain through history
for the mystery of it all.
I haven't found it yet you see
on the mountain I've climbed was tall.

If God meant me to uncover
what He plans to show one day
then all of what I've searched and learned
would have been lost to me some way.

I will just take what I now know as truth
and teach it to another.
They may not be my sisters in blood
or that of my blood brother.

To learn the mystery of it all
would be no use you see
for my life would have meant nothing
nothing but my searching for a mystery!

Linda, Did you mean to write in vain? I found 'in vane' distracting. Peace, Ray
