Hello
All i want to do is ask you something
How can i....
Have you a.....
Do you want.......

But no...
walk on by
ignore me

That is all you do
I just want to help you
But you care not
Do not listen to me
Why should you

I am just me
A passer by
Someone who wants to take up your time

Wait you spoke to me
You listened
You replied
You asked me

Now you go
By and by
Walk away
A thank you i say

You do not care
You do not really listen

Why should you
Why oh why

I was disturbing your thought
I was pestering your walk
I was intruding on your time

Now you walk on by

All i want is to....
Please can i ask
Do you mind if

I repeat myself
But no one listens
I ask so many
But so few stop

To take a minute or two
and listen
to benefit from my words
to help you

Those few that do
I thank you
for you made my day
today

Just a little yes
just a little time
just a little moment
Just you

Thank you i say
I will help you
This is what i do

Crowds come and go
People pass me by
Work i should do
But browse i am

Why not
For work i still do
People i still talk to
Listen i do

For you have taken a moment in time
to actually listen to me
to hear what i say
to understand the value of my words

Thank you
For today
Those few
That said YES
Working on a Saturday....
