Ode To The Small Business Owner-
You wake up early,
to open your store.
You run your own business,
but do so much more.
You shovel the sidewalk,
and lay down some salt.
Or pay someone else to do it.
That's what commerce is about.
You buy Girl Scout Cookies,
raffle tickets and ads.
You coach little league & hockey.
Or help pay for the pads.
You don't do it for fortune.
You don't do it for fame.
You're just doing your job.
And hope we do the same.
Thank you small business owner,
for keeping Main Street alive.
We wish you the best.
And may your business thrive.
