What does it cost-for a penny for your thoughts?
In the worldly person's view-
What is a penny-but a way to tell, for sure, the amount
and cost of things, not always understood right away.
I see a penny on the floor-and I never pick it up-no
not anymore.
It would just be another crumb to add to my pocket-book-
another way of telling how much more I have to spend on just
a little nook.
Let another worldly dweller pick it up, and then they can tell,
for sure, how much they have to pay for things.
They would always have a need for it, more than me now.
I could always add a penny, when I take too much of my time
taking a penny!
