A penny for your thoughts

That Little Penny In The Parking Lot
Remember this every time you pass that little penny in the parking lot. I always thought that it was for good luck, but I love this version better.
I found a penny today
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..
I love the above poem. When I was a little kid, my grandmother and I would walk from my house to my aunt’s house. Along the way she asked me to keep my eyes peeled for coins. We’d always find something. Now, I seem to find coins everyday, and I know it’s my abuelita smiling down on me. James
