Small Change

Most of us will spend our days like change

and not remember exactly where they went

because life is a hole in the pocket

where days tumble down a pant leg—but some of

the good we did and do is caught in the cuff

and from time to time we should bend down

and turn out our cuffs just to remind us

that we have not been as spendthrift as we thought

and more good than we can remember.
