Snakes and Ladders
a harmless child's game
up the ladder, down the snake
life seems much the same.
We take a chance
and up the ladder we go
or we may also wind up
much farther below.
The dice hold the answers
and shake them we must
to get where we're going
in ourselves we must trust.
So on I live my life
not all decisions are wise
its all in the trying
life's full of surprise!
