And what did Rose have time to do? She wrote a poem. One about sadness and loneliness. Here it is for all of our blog readers.
Roxie and Rose are all alone and by themselves;
Cute stuff sitting all over the counters and shelves.
With little business after Christmas our patience run thin;
Figured out it may end up that we just can’t win.
Ten years ago we started making things we couldn’t buy;
Made items ourselves because products were so high.
Went to the craft shows to share our quality things;
Many customers liked our offerings of bling.
Then came the idea of a shop filled with handcrafted goods;
Made by us and some friends from the neighborhood.
Asked people we knew from our craft show days;
To join our little co-op and said yes with few delays.
Here we are putting ourselves on the line;
With little business and plenty of time;
Need something for a birthday, anniversary or just because?
Want something and we are closed, just call--we won’t pause.
Quick as a flash and we will come to the store;
With keys in our hand and we will open the door.
We will invite you in as we flip on the lights;
And you can shop to your little heart’s delight.
If you need a gift or something cute for your home;
Think of Rebel Roxie Rose sitting and waiting all alone.
We will do what it takes to make our customers happy;
Even go so far as to write a poem that is just so sappy.
Please think of us when buying gifts for birthdays, anniversaries, holidays and more. We have lots of cute items. The people in Eudora want and need businesses so they can shop locally. If you want the small businesses to stay, please be sure to support all of us. Thanks until next time.
