Premium Member No Cents or Nickels
One "cent" is one-hundredth of a dollar. It is often mistaken for its British counterpart, the penny. They are worth so little these days. Now, a suggestion has been presented: The United States Mint should cease their production. They say it costs two cents to make just one cent. I also heard the five cent "nickel" is not far behind. The price...

Our Two Cents
On my mothers’ group Zoom, Six of us in the “room,” We remember what we used to do When our babies would cry Or, asleep, how they’d lie And what helped us, back then, to get through. What made us reminisce Was, with grandkids now, this – Things are not done the same way today And our children, all grown, With some kids of...

My Two Cents

If you’re childless, with maybe some pets, Voting one way you’ll have no regrets, Since when bullies are beaten Who believe cats are eaten, We can focus on climate and debts. And for women, just think...

2 Cents Comments On Violence
I’ll drop verses on a sensitive subject. Reflecting on an issue we can inspect. That painful topic is domestic violence. Showing not just in victim body dents. Many times there’s no sign of the beating. Like when stopping a partner from eating. Or controlling their actions through fear. Who mask the torture and wipe the...

Premium Member Forty Six Cents
Forty-six cents doesn’t seem like much when looking at the vastness of the universe… It’s the amount of change you might find in your sofa, in your pocket or at the bottom of your purse. But the other day, behind the counter, selling books in our bookstore… I realized how forty-six cents can be worth a whole lot...

10 cents could buy you a drink, Straight from the neighbor's sink. Mixed with a lemon, Rolled on the floor, To make more juice that we all adore. No sanitation grade on this stand. ...

Lest I be guilty of grossest negligence I feel like I must put in my own two cents As I watch and evaluate strong evidence We owe a debt of gratitude to Mike Pence. I know, I know, he’s not even a Democrat But on Jan 6th he knew where he was at He stuck by the Constitution and all that, As...

Premium Member Three Cents Shy
She stood in line holding a loaf of bread, so I motion for her to go ahead. Thanking me, she started counting her change and I must admit she looked somewhat strange. She had a hand full of pennies she'd found outside, where I had thrown them on the ground. She looked hungry and was shabbily dressed, but the busy cashier was...
