Through The Desert Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Life is a maze of strife and sadness, fortitude is difficult, hazardous at times.

Depending upon others in times of loneliness does not work,
experience has taught that one must walk through the desert
alone, trusting only in God.

Constant shifting sand dunes cause a loss of bearing - panic,
knowing you alone must learn to trust in all things.

There is no earthly teacher or seer who can give the answers
to life's unending quest.

Alone, afraid, full of sadness, trusting that if you have
any faith at all your unequaled journey will be made
successfully out of the desert wasteland.
