Pennies in a bucket saved
Holding them for the future
Though they make very small change
Still can earn a buck

You spent your last pennies on me

Improv On Pennies.

balanced on each fingertip
while giggles spill rich.
Felt tip markers draw the eyes
in this poor man's puppet show.

Premium Member Three Pennies

I saw three pennies in a pool,
as I walked along the bay.
Three pennies shining in the light
with nothing much to say.

That's Me.

nickels, dimes, and pennies
i got them all

i could burn them all

just like you to me
I'm all that i need.

With her husband who was penurious
He gave pennies to the poor
After quite a big uproar
His flamboyant stinginess quite curious.

but equating pennies messes me up every time

Comedic Penny Pincher

Comedic Penny Pincher

Jack Benny’s
Comedic persona was to pinch pennies.
Every week he would lead his merry band
And Rochester would always get the upper hand.

Poor and Rich

A wishing-full sap
Threw pennies
Into a fountain.

“I wish to be rich”
He cried
Flip and flop
Again.

Every night
A rich man
Vacuumed the fountain
Clean.

First we had ‘Pennies from Heaven’
         Then it was the ‘March of Dimes’
  
       Now the Tooth Fairy leaves five dollars
