Three Stones and a Dime A greedy tyrant Behold the rising sea comes Beatiful sea shells We came from ashes Even the birds fly away Beautiful white sand There was a wise man Everything washed away Tears taste so bitter He walked to thier graves The wet sand clung to his feet The smell of the sea He looked all around He threw three stones and a dime Now he had nothing Juju -Juju -"So you found a girl Who thinks really deep thoughts What's so amazing about really deep thoughts " Silent all these Years, Tori Amos |

Sometimes three stones and a dime is all we have. I love your poetry. Fall in love early, fall in love often. |

A Phoenix rises... a poet begets... memories unkind yet, no regrets. ~*~ You continue to inspire! |

juju, very much enyoy... he threw insults....(the three stones) and the dime, wasn't very much in the way of complenting you... and yes, as Sunshine says, no regrets...we love for a reason, we learn and grow, realizing in the end, it all had purpose....even the pain of it...mostly the pain... it is a gift to be able to love like that. |

Your title caught me--but I confess, the meaning escapes me. (Don't worry, I have the same problem too.)  enjoyed. |

I really like your poem, especailly in haiku form. I don't know the whole meaning but I feel a sense of regret and maybe loneliness in my opinion. |
