The Maze That is Life


Life is like a maze,
Just a matter of trial and error,
Don’t sit and gaze,
Be the adventurer.

Left or right, this or that?
Take a guess and see.
Draw from the hat,
You are free!

When you hit a dead end
Turn around and try again.
Maybe take the bend,
There might be a glen!

Just know if you get it wrong,
It isn’t permanent.
Keep moving along
Because you are the determinant.
