Man! A True Phoenix

He is climbing up a ladder
On his way to success,
crossing out every hurdle
Cleaning up every mess.

On each step of the ladder
He meets a new task,
meets new disguised challenges
Climbs up, uncovering each mask.

Up and up, he climbs up
Up, on his way to the peak,
Looking back, he is proud of himself
He has never faced defeat.

Oops, he slips from the ladder
The step was a way too high,
But man! he is a phoenix
He'll just try and try.

In his life he is often victorious
several times encounters downfall,
But man! he'll never give up
He is as firm as a concrete wall.

Man! He is a phoenix
A phoenix in a sense so true,
For he rises every time he falls
from his ashes to start anew!
