Pennies in a bucket saved
Holding them for the future
Though they make very small change
Still can earn a buck
Russell Sivey
I ingest it all
what portion you give
it doesn't cost you much
small change, well spent
your investment is wise
little do you know
that the interest is great
and will reward ten-fold
There are those times, when you look back, and know one small change, could have bettered your world
immensely. Be it an action, a sentence, a word, it threw your world off course, and the exit you passed, can’t
ever be re-found.

(small change in last part to avoid some readers' confusion)
Fun
Skating on thin ice describes for some
that nice Deception--fun,
taunting the chill fathom
beneath the white skin.
Too much like spending
small change for me.
All that over-shoulder peeking
to be sure the depth's not there.
When one hard look would send
those enamel eyes
crashing through
a surprise of air.
A rope around my throat I wait,
standing on a box,
Unsure of so many things of late,
and missing golden locks.
I killed my love to let her go,
and I found myself a knife,
Pressed it up against my wrist,
an attempt to change my life.
I cant let go I miss it so,
I had hoped our lives would join,
my future now I do not know,
whilst the jury toss the coin.
Trudging around our town,
This man is really down.
In his eyes see despair -
“Some small change can you spare.”
To eat, for cash he pleads,
But he’s more pressing needs.
There’s free food-bank nearby
On which he can rely.
He must play begging tricks –
He needs to buy his fix.
He’s a pawn in the game –
The shame, the pain, the gain.
The tallyman he pay
Lurks in that alleyway.
One small change is all I made
One small sacrifice was made
I gave an inch and got back a meter
I gave God a bow and got an army
A small gesture can have a giant impact
A little love can have the greatest effect
I didn’t know I could reap so much from so little
I didn’t know another soul could respond so deeply
I think I’ll continue down this path of progress
I think I’ll take a minute to show gratitude to God
