Life's Gamble

Whatever the hand you are dealt in life

 you must never fold

Whether starting life

big, brass and bold

Or starting out in the cold

For life is just a game

But one that we must play

Whatever the world throws at you

You must gamble away

Your past doesn’t determine your future

Though your future determines your past

So take from these words that which are true

You choose in your life, what you do

Alas’ I think you are starting

to see that life is about

Choices and choosing merrily

Of that I have no doubt.
