A Pocket full of Change |

A pocket full of Change To me it is not very strange To shake a pocket full of change It comes to me each moment new And flashes me a brand new view And I spend it as best I can Upon the need that is of man Some for food and some for cloths And some for odors for my nose I cannot count the change each day Each coinage is of different weigh Some are heavy and some are light And some have teeth that seem to bite It keeps me in a state of care A constant process of aware What and why and when to spend And when this coinage meant to lend And so we face each morning’s work A day of life we cannot shirk |

Carrying this Canadian change around has become a burden in itself Sy. What with the dollar and a two dollar coin.. sure makes a man's pant's pockets and a woman's purse feel heavy. Love the write! LOL...another day, another dollar. ~Morning hugs, Nancy~ |

Hmmm, all the good coinage jokes seem to be taken. Still, I'll offer you a yankee dime and a dutch quarter just the same. Susan Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |
