Yes I Am

YES I AM I am that tall,good and kind man I have the longest legs on earth I am the fastest man on earth I am deaf and dumb My eyes lead me like a sheep and its lamb I am very curious but, very time conscious I am jobless I am homeless I always thirst for water I always need a good Samaritan Despite my state, I am the world's priority People suffer a fate But need me to be free I am he everyone awaits to make a mirth I go to anyone who is willing All I need is caring Everybody needs me But I come without acknowledging me I come I come I stand at your door Open and welcome me with a kiss When you delay,I make a hiss The next scene, I turn my back to the door There you will miss Don't try opening For I am time conscious Don't try calling For I am deaf and dumb Don't try following For I have the longest legs on earth Don't try chasing For I am the fastest man on earth I come to make you mirth But you can choose to be in dearth I came I came I stood at your door You welcomed me wonderfully But you made me sit on the floor You left me and forgot to close the door I moved out slowly Upon your return, You didn't see me You forgot I am time conscious I saw someone ready So went there because I was curious You tried calling But forgot I am deaf and dumb You tried following But forgot I have the longest legs on earth You tried chasing But forgot I am the fastest man on earth I came to make you mirth But you chose to be in dearth I stood at your door You welcomed me wonderfully You made me sit comfortably But refused to give me water when I was thirsty You left me and forgot to close the door Upon your return, You didn't see me You tried calling But forgot I am deaf and dumb You tried following But forgot I have the longest legs on earth You tried chasing me But forgot I am the fastest man on earth I came to make you mirth But you chose to be in dearth I stood at his door He welcomed me with a kiss He closed the door, gave me a place to sit comfortably, gave me water to lessen my sore, Prepared me a mutton He made me eat like a glutton He laid his spreadsheet on a bed He gestured to me to lay my head I slept until he received what he needed He decided to keep me forever Alas,I embark on a journey Joy like a river flowed in his heart He smiled while escorting me Yes I am I am the very person you needed But I came and you took me for granted I am the one you are awaiting When I come, show me the caring I am opportunity.
