A Penny For My Thoughts

If I had a penny for every thought of you, I'd be the richest person in the world. Streets would be covered with pennies, And the skies would be bright and shiny. I begin each day with the thoughts of your love, Your smile just brightens my life. A penny for my thoughts could fill an ocean, If I had a penny for every time I thought of you. The weight of the clouds would burst open the skies, Sprinkling pennies everywhere to be found. My dreams would be filled with love for you, If I had a penny for every thought of you. I can't sleep at night just thinking of you, I lay in my bed just counting my pennies. Then another thought of you . . . And I have to start counting all over again. One million and seven, one million and eight . . . oops. Another thought of you . . . One million and seven, one million . . . oops. Oh, the hell with it! one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight . . . ©2014 by Lee Christine Brownlee
