Coupon Clipping
Clipping coupons
In the Sunday paper
Saving cents
On things to buy now or later
Colorful savings
On delectable treats
Fruits, fish and vegetables
Cinnamon and meats
Captain crunch cereal
Much to the dentist’s dismay
Dish soap and laundry detergent
Things you need every day.
The savings didn’t amount
To all that much
But they represented so much
More than just lunch
The coupon clipping was
A sign of care
Of a long-term plan
Sustaining those blithely unaware
