Heaven Cent

A penny placed with charming grace upon a rail of steel with haste spreads copper bright between the space A penny placed with charming grace becomes a treasured resting place for earth bound angels sitting chaste A penny placed with charming grace upon a rail of steel with haste. Two children come to this reveal and wish upon the coppered rail with pointed stick they try to steal Two children come to this reveal their first love with kiss to seal such innocence a holy grail Two children come to this reveal and wish upon the copper rail. Poet: D. Guzzi Contest: In the After Glow
