Pennies from Heaven

Anybody believe in Pennies from Heaven? Dear Abby used to print Pennies from Heaven stories in her column. Some of them were quite interesting. Touching. If you search the net you can find stories galore.

Here's the poem that goes with it:

I found a penny today
Just laying on the ground.
But it's not just a penny,
this little coin I've found.
Found pennies come from heaven,
That's what my Grandpa told me.
He said Angels toss them down.
Oh, how I loved that story.
He said when an Angel misses you,
They toss a penny down.
Sometimes just to cheer you up,
To make a smile out of your frown.
So, don't pass by that penny,
When you're feeling blue.
It may be a penny from heaven,
that an Angel's tossed to you.
So now pass this on to the people who you care about
and who you feel are Angels to you,
I just did.An Angel is now watching over you.

As I stepped out my car at the store parking lot today, there at my feet was a bright, shiny penny sitting face up.
