Old Coat, New Year

- Lynette Score
(A young Ann Arbor poet)

I love when I find money
In the pockets of my clothes

Never knowing where it comes from,
Thinking maybe it grows

Like a flower in a driveway
Or a tree along a highway,
Growing not because it's planted
But because it's just that season
Like a present with no reason
From myself unto myself.
