As I reveal the contents of this case
I can not help but be surprised by how
they seem to be so plain and commonplace.
A bobby pin to hold back hair in tow
perhaps it does not lock but picks for fun.
A copper penny marked in God we trust
which comes from year nineteen and ninety one
engraved with wise old Lincoln's noble bust.
A sticky star so shiny and so blue
perhaps it's a mark of triumph past.
Two papers inked with number and letter too
with meaning unapparent but clues vast.
And metal leaf adorned with tiny ring
perhaps a love of all nature may bring.
