Help Wanted

My Imaginary Restaurant 


In my restaurant I would make 
dishes that feed the soul.

It would be a place for the young
and the old.

All are welcome. The only require-
ment is that you are part of the 
human race.

On second thought there's a place
for your pet's as well.

I will not turn away the poor, I have
special seat for you. 

You will be treated like royalty here
and your soul will be fed.

Your seat will be adjacent to the 
rich. Every one gets treated the 
same here.

Help wanted, I'm looking for like
minded people who don't mind 
working in a place such as this.

I can't pay you for your services.
Hopefully you will be satisfied with "
your act of kindness" being your
pay.

I got to go now, I have to make a big pot
of "love".

It made me smile, as although this is Imaginary, I actually go to a restaurant/coffeeshop that comes close to this! Loved the poem!
