Steps

We start out taking baby ones when we are little

Some are on the left and right of the house and some are in the middle

We walk up them and down them to the other side

Some are mechanical and you get on them and take a ride

Some are made of wood brick concrete steel and sometimes carved in stone

Some lead to nowhere even though a sign is shown

Some are short and narrow others wide and steep

Sometimes in faith you push off one and take a giant leap

Some have handrails on them for your own protection

Sometimes in life we have to take one to go in the right direction

Sometimes we fall down them and its just fate

But we all hope to climb them after we die to get to heavens gate
