Just stumbled upon this. Anybody know any others?
I lost a world the other day.
Has anybody found?
You'll know it by the row of stars
Around its forehead bound.
A rich man might not notice it;
Yet to my frugal eye
Of more esteem than ducats.
Oh, find it, sir, for me!
Emily Dickinson

something new,
something borrowed,
something blue,
and a sixpence in her shoe

the geese are getting fat
Please do put a penny in the old man's hat
If you haven't got a penny, a halfpenny will do
If you haven't got a ha'penny, then God bless you!

A dime for your dreams
Would a shiny new quarter buy a peek at your schemes?
And when you are away
So far from my side
I will cherish my pennies worth
Till at last I'm your bride
A penny for your thoughts
Let's call it a deal
I don't have any secrets
You know how I feel
A penny for your thoughts
It's settled and done
I'd have offered a million
I'd have done it for none
I reckon we're in love
And married we'll be
And all for a penny
A bright copper penny
The penny that brought you to me
60 years into this hobby and I'm still working on my Lincoln set!
Willy and the Poorboys are playin';
Bring a nickel; tap your feet.
You don't need a penny just to hang around,
But if you've got a nickel, won't you lay your money down?
Over on the corner there's a happy noise.
People come from all around to watch the magic boy.
Down On The Corner, out in the street,
Willy and the Poorboys are playin';
Bring a nickel; tap your feet.
