Awaiting Your Call

Can you speak to the masses
will your words cross the line
From youngest to oldest
will listeners opine

How many octaves
can sing out your tune
Is it seasonal only
or July until June

Is time to speak kindly
of what you espouse
Or pile like kindling
as scraps from a house

The listeners are out there
awaiting your call
Their ears to the ground
—will you bend to enthrall
