Fix your eyes on the ladder <br />Ladder that takes to the top <br />Climb it step by step <br />Don't be distracted by cobwebs <br />The ladder may be bumpy <br />That should not bother you <br />He who must lick honey inside rock <br />Must not mind the fate of the axe <br />So climb the ladder with integrity, <br />Courage, love, piety and integrity <br />Never forget those you left behind <br />And the one that help you to climb <br />Remember a river severed from its source <br />Will dry up along its course <br />Let God be your guide <br />As you mount the ladder of life<br /><br />Babatunde Aremu<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/ladder-of-life/
