A penny, a penny,

I found on the floor.

It shines and it glistens,

Could there be some more?

I looked and I looked,

To find more loose change.

And to my amazement,

I thought it quite strange….

To see that more pennies were

All strewn about.

One here and one there,

And without a doubt….

There were quarters

And dimes, and even nickels too.

Where did they all come from,

Just out of the blue?

I started to pick up

The coins one by one.

And put in my pocket,

This is going to be fun!

As the coins were put

In my pocket with glee,

I noticed that they started

Hitting my knee.

It was then that I looked in

My pocket to see,

That it had a hole,

No free coins for me!
