Today I found a coin: from 1948.
I found it on the floor; it had a dreary fate.
Until it caught my eye: a circle on the ground,
it was dark and dirty but I knew what I had found.
I rubbed it with my finger and revealed the little date,
I thought ‘a coin survived this long deserves a better fate’.
I put it in my pocket; to clean it thereon,
I’ll get off all those years of dirt: and let that coin shine on.
Coin From 48 • Opuss № I
