-

We throw the dice

Had snake eyes

A small movement on the board.

-

Wait your turn

You have to learn

Patience is the key to life.

-

Another roll

Another day

Continue on with the play

Surprises are in life.

-

Don’t be concerned

Courage you have earned

Sunsets are beautiful in life.

-

Up the ladder of success

Down the snakes to make a mess

Being human in the game of life.

-

Another throw, another day

Gamble on as we pray

Chances we take in life.

-

Be happy for someone else’s gaim

We can’t all win in the game of fame

Life is good no matter where we are at.

-

When the game is put away

And you call it a day

Remember life gave you a turn.
