Prompt-Write a poem titled “Throwing the Dice.”

She awaits, eyes wide in expectation,

Cheeks flushed with anticipation,

And the small red dice rolls and rolls

Till it stops, showing three white dots.

A smile spreads across her cherubic face

And she squeals in utter delight,

Savouring the sweet thrill of her first win,

In this game of 'Snake and Ladder'.
