Well, son, I'll tell you:

Life for me ain't been no crystal stair.

It's had tacks in it,

And splinters,

And boards torn up,

And places with no carpet on the floor –

Bare.

But all the time

I'se been a-climbin' on,

And reachin' landin’s,

And turnin' corners,

And sometimes goin' in the dark

Where there ain't been no light.

—“Mother to Son,”
Langston Hughes
