Life is a ladder
June 27, 2013
Life is a ladder
You can decide to go up or down
There is always a risk
The wind can blow
You can fall
Or you keep on climbing
Life is a fall
You can get a scrape but keep going
Or you can collapse
And quit on yourself
You can be the sun
Shining bright and strong
Or you can be a cloud
Gray and dismal waiting to pass
Life is a monopoly
Deciding your fate
How you play the game
You can choose to take a risk
and earn a reward
or pay the price
Life is a puzzle
You can be patient and figure it out
Or give it up
Its sink or swim
Life is a ladder
You can decide to go up or down
There is always a risk
The wind can blow
You can fall
Or you can keep climbing
