A journey for acceptance

A dream to start something new
But I didn't know how to do
It was a concept new
could have been accepted by very few

People thought I was clueless
wasting my time aimless
In desperation I roamed around like a nomad
knowing that one day they would be glad

I wanted a few questions resolved
no man was ready to be involved
Too passionate to quit I was
I knew it was all for my cause

people could easily term me mad
sold all the furniture I had
caring neighbours and relatives in all sorts of pain
but some money i got to sustain

Recognized that it could only be London
where i could possibly get my job done
a man to help was gracious enough
learned the tricks of the trade and other stuff

came back and started in full swing
I felt like I had developed wings
it took little time to convince everyone again
confident of my capabilities I knew I would reign

the job was done got a lot of acclaim
ultimately had carved a niche for my name
success was incomplete without my families support
the journey was worthwhile despite all the retorts
