Ah! Sweet Mystery of Life
By Rida Johnson Young

AH! sweet mystery of life, at last I've found thee;
Ah! I know at last the secret of it all;
All the longing, striving, seeking, waiting, yearning,
The burning hopes, the joys and idle tears that fall!

For 'tis love, and love alone, the world is seeking;
And it's love, and love alone, that can reply;
'Tis the answer, ti's the end and all of living,
For it is love alone that rules for aye!

What an appropriate post.
I like this and it says so much in so few words.
I love this. I'm a hopeless romantic so this definitely speaks to me :)
