A Dollar To Start

An Inspirational and Uplifting Poem EVERY DAY from Simon J. Halliday!

A Dollar To Start

A dollar to start, then ten to grow

A hundred tomorrow, go with the flow

You'll soon be rich, don't worry at all

We'd never like to see you fall!

We're here to help, just take your card

And pay right now, it's not so hard

It's only numbers, smile and play

Don't fear tomorrow, enjoy today!

So how's it going, old friend of mine?

I'm calling to see if all is fine

Oh right, you're not so happy now

It all went wrong, I shan't ask how

I thought you might want one more chance

You went elsewhere, come back and dance

My game is better, so let's begin

This time you're really going to win!

I hope you're happy, I need to check

The wheel has stopped, you left the deck

There's no more action, no more cash

So once again, you had to dash?

I know you want to go, be free

I understand, that's just like me

But this, your only chance has gone

You lost your money, the game goes on

But now you're free, you'll never be back

The greed you had will now attack

Another wanderer, hoping high

To have a chance before they die

So just remember, when living at last

Your hopes of riches have far from passed

A dollar to start, your dreams come true

If that first dollar is coming to you
