A GAME OF CARDS
September 30, 2022
Life is like a game of cards,
You don’t know what's coming at you,
But once you know it,
You have to take a decision,
Will you take a risk?
Or will you play it safe like many others?
Will you fold or will you bet?
If you bet,
Will you win,
Probability says otherwise,
Can you beat all odds?
If you lose,
You are finished,
But it also depends,
Were you all in?
Or Were you smart enough?
What if you fold?
You play it safe,
But then-
You are like the many others
who never win big.

The poem talks about an essential part of human life that has been compared and contrasted with a game of cards. Risks are essential in life and cards if one wants to make it big. It's not just about risks, it really depends on the reader.
