No Amount Is Too Small to Save

Members of the family, especially

children are more cooperative


about saving pieces of soap

if you paint a coffee can, cut a slot


in the top and station it near

the bathroom door. Children enjoy


dropping soap bits in the can

as they do pennies in the piggy bank.

About the author:

Amanda Laughtland lives just north of Seattle. Her collection of poems inspired by "missed connections" personal ads, I Meant to Say, is available from Overhere Press. She publishes a very small zine called Teeny Tiny whenever she finds the time.
