Spare Change

We began to leave the park
and you saw change 
resting on the blades of grass.
"Someone must have been sleeping
and had it fall out of their pockets."
you said. I looked down
and saw three quarters
along with a few pennies.
I picked up the quarters
and placed them into my pocket.
"You should leave the pennies
facing up," you said.
You reached down and turned
them over. Perhaps they'll bring
luck to the next person who sees them.
