Wow, AC noce points to ponder!

 

I think if u add the historical usage of it...it will be even more complete...

Taken from wikipedia ... Ladder - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Historical usage:

Ladders are ancient tools and technology. A ladder is depicted in a Mesolithic rock painting that is at least 10,000 years old, depicted in a cave in Valencia, Spain. Bee Wilson (2004: p.5) references the rock painting which shows two naked humans carrying baskets or bags that are employing a long wobbly ladder, which appears to be made out of some kind of grass, to reach a wild honeybee nest to harvest honey. Modern ladders are believed to have been conceived by Hebrews and Egyptians.

Vani,



Oh! I wish there was a long
ladder to the moon,
so that I climb into the sky,
and find out the secret of
the moon who grows big and small
talk to the stars that twinkle all night,
and say I am the first boy
to have climbed over...
i know it is a dream,
but dreaming high
is the first step to climb
the ladder of success

 

My mom showed me a ladder,
seeing it i was so merrier,
the steps showed me
how to climb one by one
to the top and be a success,
climbing and looking back
is never easy but i have to,
to keep my mind on the track


=================
Have you climbed a ladder,
it makes you look taller ,
what looked so difficult to reach,
on it appears within reach,
always look back at the steps,
of it, my mother quips,
to remember the hard work,
to reach the top there,
i look at the sky, and ponder,
at the birds with wonder,
they don't need any ladder,
to reach the skies yonder...

 

The Ladder is one
that moves nowhere up
and helps people to go up.
The ladder is a great one,
like a teacher..they help people
to go up..
Ladders can be taken anywhere,
and lessons are learned anywhere.
Ladders are like life, up and down..
The ladders are a game..Shh..
beware of snakes on the way.:cheers
