The Dime

a silly little rhyme
about the silly little Dime

ever think about The Dime?
i do, all the time

it's $trange
The Dime is a worthless piece of change

oh, it's worth ten cents
but 2 nickels make just as much sense

how much money could we $ave
if the government would behave?

The Deficit it might not dent
but Time & Money it would $ave The Mint

so, for my 2cents worth
2 nickels are a Dime's worth

$ave the silver, copper or tin
let The Dime's time come to an end

$ave the Money & the Time
take away my last Dime

ever think about The Dime?
i do, all the time

just a silly little rhyme
about the silly little Dime

This was a cute little rhyme about the siily little dime. I really enjoyed it but just remember that every good and perfect gift comes from the Lord whether big or small. A dime if saved can be worth alot as the years o your life pass by.

Personally, I like the dime and I make my case her for her survival. A petit piece of change that takes up less space in my wallet and is lighter than two nickels. Who needs nickels when we have pennies???? though it takes five of those to make a nickel and only two nickels to make a dime...if we went from nickels straight to quarters with no dimes we would need 4 nickels at all times and four pennies to make that $.24 that was not quiet a quarter, that is eight coins instead of three with a nickel and two dimes or six pieces with two dimes and four pennies. I am thinkin that a dime is just fine...LOL Cute write, Steve.
Take care,
Sherry
