My niece sent this poem to me. :)

Pennies

I found a penny today
just laying on the ground,
but it's not just a penny
this little coin I've found.
Found pennies come from heaven
that's what my grandpa told me,
he said angels toss them down.
Oh, how I loved that story.
he said when an angel misses you
they toss a penny down,
sometimes just to cheer you up
to make a smile out of your frown
so don't pass by that penny
when you're feeling blue,
it may be a penny from heaven
that an angel's tossed to you.

that is soo sweet :)

Beautiful, mate! :salute:

Beautiful Pete.........I've never heard that before :)

That's neat.:thumbsup:

I really like that. May I copy it? Thanks! :)

:) Yes.

Only trouble is that the penny you find now will be taxed at 90%.

Sorry about the downer, but tis reality, today.

So that means you now have 1 mill out of that penny which you keep.

Not even worth the copper!

This is a beautiful poem. Thank you for sharing.

Will the angels get slammed for counterfeiting?

No, they received a special dispensation. ;)

Sudden flash of insight, there?

When it happens, you'll be the first to know!

By thunder, you're right!
