pennies matter

I may not be Gold and I may not be Silver.

Yes I rust away. I am only Copper. What do you expect me to do?

We may not shine like the rest but, we are Diamonds in Discretion.

If you look a little closer a Glimmer will stain your eye, then will you only see pure

beauty.

pennies matter too.  

This poem is about: 
Me
My community
Our world

The metaphors/symbolism here are very eloquent and beautifully expressed. The images too, are vivid. This is a skillfully crafted poem, though short it has impact.

About poetry is not only a blessing but it is a gift for the writer 

to continue doing what they've started.
