Everybody has their moments of ladder
Let me roll the dice
Be not afraid of a snake bite
Why quit without a fight?
All cannot win to play
There ought to be some losers.
Consequences are just existential fare
That lands me on another square.
Even if you reach the top row of squares
Game isn’t over till it is over.
There is some tendency to lose or diminish
When things are too close to finish
You praise me and take me high
Then sting me. Ouch! It hurts!
Slap me or pat me, it’s not my choice
In this lucky roll of dice
Nobody succeeds all the time
In this world of decision and progress
There is no such thing as ‘She is right’
In everybody’s moments of light.
Opportunity knocks on door of one
Who perseveres and persists long enough.
Successes are not permanent joys
Beware! It’s the roll of dice!
Winner is one who never quits
Midway quitter loses it all.
No matter how many stings are pounced
Brave players never denounce.
Everybody has their moments of ladder
Let me roll the dice
Afraid, I am not of a snake bite
Why quit without a fight?
