The Local Impact

The bakery on the corner
“Closed” spread across the door

The grocery gathering dust
Will open again no more

Gone is the ice cream shop
A child screams and cries

All of this can happen
When a local business dies

The people know what happened
They didn’t want to say

Their products might be better
But shops open inconvenient times a day

They claim that its much easier
To shop the supermarket that's next door

The bad thing is that this leaves
The local business owners poor

How can we stop this issue?
How can we take a stand?

If you wish to see a change
Then your mind you must expand

You need to buy their products
Their stores you must promote

You need to fight for town character
Help keep local businesses afloat
