It’s Your Ladder
It’s your ladder.
Climb at your own pace,
pause to enjoy the view,
keep your footing firm.
It’s your ladder.
Trust in each step,
never fear going higher
or taking a step back.
It’s your ladder.
Let others help steady it,
when you’re wavering,
in need of support.
It’s your ladder.
Look up, look back, look around.
Each rung offers lessons,
meaning, significance.
It’s your ladder.
Make the pattern of ascent
unique to you, your dreams
your aspirations.
It’s your ladder.
