The Game of Life

Life is like a game of chess,

You have an array of choices for your next step.

You have to take it turn by turn,

And study your opponents, always being willing to learn.

 

You will have many different opponents when playing the game,

With some being novices, and others well trained.

 But no matter who is in front of you,

                                                                                            One simple mistake can make you lose.                                               

 

You can’t stop playing, new players will continue to come,

So plant your feet down, and never run.

You must learn from all of your previous games,

 Keep updating, and don’t stay the same.

 

Your opponents will do their research on you,

And they will try learn some of your moves.

So you need to be ready to show them something they never knew,

Something they thought you never could do.

 

Keep learning the game and do not give up,

You will become stronger and stronger as a result.

As the games go on get better with time,

And keep on playing, always reaching new primes.
