A Special letter for you

I have sent a special letter to you
To remind you of what you ought to do
I‘ve sent it through the express mail
So, search diligently for it until you find it

The market is crowded
And you cannot sell iron for profit.
The hours have already come
When you must make that final run.

I’ve sent the letter to you,
to tell you that my long
-awaited dreams have come true
I’ve sent the letter to you,
To tell you that the mission has survived

I woke up this morning with courage in my head
And found water running in the bed
 The street was clean and neat
And the people for the first time
 display a sense of purpose in the street.

For the first time I felt a different mood in the town
And reality starts moving around
I did not know what to say,
So, I kept silent least my heart gave me away.
I pretend as if nothing was moving way.

As the morning rise,
 heaven became my new “bride”
And I reach towards the benevolent sky
But the sweltering heat 
was already creating havoc in the street
and sweat start dripping from my face
 soaking the entire human race.

The plants are beckoning for some peace
And workers have assembled in the street
waiting for the chance to find work outside of town.

The winery is where you ought to be
their goods are languishing at sea
small businesses are hanging on by the thread
so proceed with caution otherwise they will soon be dead
give them a business loan 
to elevate their business back to the throne
and take them back to where destiny roam

I have sent a letter to you about a lawyer
That is walking on the street without shoe
The situation is so sad,
 but at the stroke of a pen,
 you will make the heavens glad.

Open the letter today
 for I want the final ok
So that I can go away.
I‘ve sent a special letter to you	.
