Bernard Barclay Poet Narrative

Small Restaurants

So many small restaurants
are becoming bankrupt
so many people will lose their jobs
Covid Nineteen is devastating 

Small business 
we still have the buildings
we still have the staff
all we need is the money to start

once the virus has gone
people investing together 
could restart the business 
that have shut down

Once people have jobs and wages
they can save to rebuild 
what they have lost
Granted it's not fair

When once you owned
the company
but now you work for some one else
but it's better to have a wage

be able to feed your family
pay your mortgage
and rebuild your life
teaching people who workers

to invest just ten dollars a week
could help everybody
climb out of their debt
and back onto the horse of success

a thousand people that want to be Chefs 
waiters and restaurant staff
saving ten dollars per week together would have
ten thousand dollars per week

The money to build the restaurants
granted it would take time
but at least it's a way to start 
overcoming your problems
