Song of Myself – Self-Made Man

Daily writing prompt
When you think of the word “successful,” who’s the first person that comes to mind and why?

A Man’s Journey: Alone, Yet Flourishing 🌟

In the quiet of the evening light,
Stands a man, poised for flight.
No girlfriend’s warmth to share the night,
Yet his spirit burns, bold and bright. 💡

With dreams that soar on wings of hope,
He navigates life, learning to cope.
Success his compass, passion his map,
In the rhythm of progress, he finds his clap. 👏

Each goal he sets, a mountain to climb,
With courage as his ally, he conquers time.
For in every challenge, a lesson unfolds,
A story of strength, in whispers told. 📖

Leave your heart, not your iPhone!

Friendships blossom, laughter rings true,
In a circle of trust, his heart finds its hue.
Building connections that nourish the soul,
In the tapestry of life, he plays a vital role. 🧵

Passions ignite as he dives deep within,
In art, in sport, where the true joys begin.
Every moment cherished, a treasure to keep,
In the dance of existence, he finds joy’s leap. 🎨

Self-care his mantra, he nurtures his core,
With health and well-being, he opens new doors.
Mind and body in harmony, a symphony played,
In the orchestra of life, his spirit won’t fade. 🎶

Though love may wait, he walks his own path,
With resilience as armor, he embraces the math.
For the heart knows its rhythm, and fate will align,
In the journey of self, the stars brightly shine. ✨

So here he stands, a man strong and free,
In the dance of success, he finds unity.
With hope in his heart and dreams in his sight,
He knows his time will come, it’s just a matter of light. 🌅
