In a land not bound by time or space, there lived a curious soul,
a dreamer of new worlds and progress, in search of a role.
Through a digital ride, the soul sought to explore,
a world called Solana, to gain brains, $BONK, and more.

The soul began at the source, looking for the ledger,
finding proof of history, Solana's time-bound measure.
Here, each block is a verse, in the ledger's song,
carried by validators, in a network strong.

The next step was moving through the busy DeFi streets,
past Raydium and Serum, where finance meets.
Everyone's off to the moon, but the soul is on Jupiter,
where tokens flow wide, the ultimate liquidity whisperer.

The journey led it to a device quite rare,
the Solana Saga Phone, beyond compare.
With DePIN in hand, on a screen so fine,
a tool for the soul's future to thrive and shine.

Then came the Magic Eden market, a sight to behold,
beautiful NFTs on display, as their value soared.
Metaplex offered artists an open creative field,
where creation and ownership were firmly sealed.

MonkeDAO showed up, a force united,
where the soul found friends, warmly invited.
A sign of Solana’s warm welcome, unity grew,
in the code lies a common goal, clear and true.

The soul entered Superteam, where collaboration is key,
uniting creatives and developers in global harmony.
Earning in web3, its skills grow at a fast pace,
together, shaping Solana into a creative space.

Next, the airdrops begin like the season's first rain,
orca, pyth, and jito, like carols in Solana's domain.
Each one, a gift to the community, planting a seed,
on Solana's solid ground, where they sprout and lead.

The soul also saw Solana's resilience put to test,
with outages and trials, it still beat the quest.
Supported by 2500 developers, a network so vast,
ensuring its essence will forever last.

Next, the soul joined hackathons, a test of mind and will,
Colosseum and Scribes, where new ideas are built.
In this challenge, the soul's role became clear,
helping Solana grow, finding its place here.

As new chapters unfold, in unity, they remain,
the soul and Solana, now (SOUL)ana of the chain.
With every block placed and new roles to explore,
on Solana, it's always day 0 for every curious soul.

This poem is my entry for the Solana Scribes Best Poem track, sponsored by LamportDAO, Helius, Cubik, Solana Collective, and mtndao. It is a poetic exploration aimed at capturing the spirit of the Solana ecosystem, telling the story of a curious soul's journey through Solana. ✨
