The Mountain in the Sea

I have been waiting patiently for thee 
to take me across the mountain in the sea
the mountain is getting high
 it almost reaches the pinnacle in the sky
you must get here before the vision dies

I have been waiting for you to come to
take care of the little uncertainties
I have everything that you need but I need
that magic touch to carve out the content
and label every item on the page  in  this critical age.

I have been waiting for you to come
to do the math and categorize each item
according to regions, country and department

The automotive and the airline industry
are in separate category but all machines light
and heavy duty equipment  and tools
fall in one category beneath the heavens

I am waiting for you to come before the day is done
to add the finishing touch to popular categories
before the mad rush
electronics , service and security are different
and you hardly mentioned them
 but you need an helping hand to load them in the van
 
agriculture and foods will make the biggest
news; so pay attention to them before 
you book your tickets to heaven 

Items such as  remittance, banking
 and other forms of money transfer 
has it work cut out for them so be alert

There are some category that you cannot touch
or we the people will throw you under the bus.
clothing and textile and pharmaceutical  items
comes in abundance so take it easy on them

Not everyone love sweet and sour pork
but sea foods are popular 
and lots of people use it for supper
The beverages and the wines are getting scare
So make an offer and the angels will deliver.

Meet me at the sea shore at ten am
 and we will crunch these numbers 
in the heavens to prevent a catastrophe.
We have to move the mountain in the sea
before the clock struck three.
