Dime Poems - Poems about Dime

Dirty Child's Dime

I know the blame and the shame,
like a dirty picked up dime
forgetting its once shiny place
and a instrument that paves
I'm now the fresh concrete,
you all walk over,
as teens scribble love graffiti,
and ripped of 4 leaf clovers
of innocents once believing....
Gets caught up in the cracks,
kids need to hop and skip over,
to avoid my dire of bad

a wise penny

a penny is a cent of a dime
a dime is a wise penny
a wise penny is a cent dime
penny on a dime,penny on a cent
party on the rocks,party on a dime
party on the rocks,party on a penny
a rock party is a cent dime

penny on a dime,penny on a rock party
a rock is a rock party

Out On A Limb

A tall tree I did climb,
on a bet of a dime.
Baby Bear said it was funny,
it was not for the big money.
The limb broke what a crime.

Time Waits for No One

Time waits for no one. Isn’t that great?
If it waited on us, it would end up too late.

We think we’re the master of our time controlled realm,
But Time is the faster man at the helm.
What we witness now is already gone.
When? Where? and How? is the ultimate con.

When we’re young and naïve, we set ourselves

Life Is As Silver As Dime

He went to earth 
To pay the debt of life
So we will learn humbleness
How to let go and repent
Embrace the pain and loss
Continue life in His grace
Heal the day we say thank you
Care to be the example of His goodness
Share love and blessing to each one
Because life is as silver as dime.

A Dime in His Pocket

   A dime in his pocket
     hope in his heart
   Just his clothes on his back
     but he’d make a new start

   Constricted at home
     he took to the road
   Foraged for food
  

Cheap, on Our Dime

Every year when taxes are due, I pay mine to the full,
Even though some other people call it a bunch of bull.

Some don't pay their taxes for there is an aberration.
As time goes by they holler, "Statute of  Limitation".

They live in a life of luxury, these entitled few,
Expecting us to pay their way, since

Thin Dime Blues

                                “Thin Dime Blues”.

	Warmth of your skin not forgotten.
	And….. all my favorite singers are… Dead ,
        

Creaky floors rusted gates at your feet the fallen's fate

The Creators brush in the stream of Ocean waves
Painting with feeling and shading with inner thought 
Inventing a life a moment of escape
Swimming towards an open gate 
A trigger with a conscience 
A finger on a dime in somebody's tore pocket 
What is saved at the end of the day without the skill of care.
Losing

If I had a dime

If I had a dime 
I'd pay for the time that I had lost long ago
but I only have a penny and a head
filled with many memories of summer spent with you

Now it's winter, and I still think
of the summer nights 
although we had our fair share of fights 
nothing compares to those 90 days

Buddy Can You Spare a Dime of Humanity Or Humility

I heard you correct

The first time 

All you ever initially asked for

Was buddy can you spare a dime

But thinking I am so kind

I pulled out and offered you

A $100 dollar bill note instead

Honestly I think for the sole reason because 

So I could lord and let myself

And believe my goodness

Go to my head 

So buddy

Dime Bag Days

Take me back to the dime bag days
     when we were hotel hippies, 
thirsty for trouble and stuck in a state 
     of delirium.

Our souls were scattered messes
     among the unbent hills - 
dreaming of rebellion and freedom,
     pockets

The Bread Tricks

On a sunny day, I walk down the road,
and I stumble upon a cool dude,
who snaps a dime that turns into bread,
and earns two more by a trade.
 
I was amazed by his magic,
but something pulled me back,
and I panic then shout "Oh, tragic",
as I poked into my pouch
I pulled my hand off my pocket
and

Dime a Dozen

6/27/22

Instead of what of them
Shout out to my cousins
Damn look what the cat drug in
People often buggin'
Another useless discussion
They say it all comes a dime a dozen
Endlessly fussin'
Fighting over an english muffin
Usually from one being a drunken
At such a pitiful rate, none win
Eyes becoming sullen and sunken
Areas desolate or flooded
All of a sudden
It turned cold

Dime a Dozen

(A guy told me today with total confidence that for women, men are a dime a dozen. That has never been my experience which inspired me to pen this piece.)

I could have collected empty soda cans 
from the side of the road and cashed them in
They were worth five cents apiece back then
I only needed
