I stepped from plank to plank
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

The answer is B: Experience is gained through perseverance, even under dangerous circumstances.

Explanation:

This poem shows how we people live our lives. Each plank that the character, 'I', or the author takes represents the choices or decisions we make in our life. Since it is the choice in life, we are very precarious about making it. The plank also can represent the growth. As you take each step from plank to plank, you grow. And when you reach that point, you gain certain wisdom through that, which we call experience.

Basically, this poem tells us that every plank and step we take makes us mature and gives us wisdom, important message, and knowledge in life.
