Do I...

My question is do I?
Do I place a smile
upon your face
When I act according
to style & Grace
Do I?

Do I Seduce your heart
with my gentle smile
When I say to you
stay a while.
Do I?

Do I
stimulate your intellect
with my dialogue
steal your attention
from that catalog
Do I?

When I ask please
turn that TV down
if I am not looking
will you frown or
do I
interest you in engaging me?

Do I entice your mentality
to sit and simply dream with me-
Do I?

Do I massage your mind
when we converse
discussing plans to elevate,
to achieve the dreams
we hold within
brief spells of time
we spend-

Do I
move your soul to a place
unlike any place else
you've ever gone
when I take time
to burn your favorite song,
send it via email
when you least expect

like during a meeting
or while you stand in line
writing a check-
Do I?

Do I
break into your heart
with the things I write
just like a thief in
middle of night
do I,
engage your attention
when I drag my pen across
pieces of paper
making it safer for tears to
cleanse your soul
simply because you sit alone
reading something that I wrote
Do I?

Do I intercept you
like a football game
on thanksgiving eve
because what I've written down
is just that deep?

Tell me.. is it a touch down
did I score?
Plenty more I am
willing and wanting to give

Like a delicious desert
I aim to please you
satisfy the sweet tooth
of your spirit

Do I
connect to your reality when,
I write about the paralysis
of this life
how it's handicapped innocent hearts
making them afraid to feel?

Do I enhance or even appeal
to your wondrous thoughts
Do I
make you seek within your
own soul an opportunity
to reach for more?

Do I encourage,inspire
promote your desire to
make a necessary amends
to a long lost friend

does my writing,
my blogging every day
make clear what I am trying to do
to heal or repair your hurts and pains
set you walking
in brand new shoes.

Unworn,life not torn
perhaps a reborn you
I sure hope I do

It's the only way if you say
that when I create these poems
these columns
I move you to grater heights of love,
passion and determination
to make right what has been
wrong for far too long-

Accomplishing my own goals
to penetrate souls.
Gifts of spoken words
words that make you laugh or cry
yet healed from the outside.

I need to know I've entered you
challenged you
to be better, do more
and make a difference.

Awaken your obligation
to bring unto fruition
your own purpose-

Tell me, because it inspires me
to know that I inspire you
so humbly I ask
Do I
