The following is a tale of a girl named Penny.
I being who I was made me somewhat unpopular,
So my usual attendance at events was solitary.

That was until I went to the Nickelback concert.
I was enjoying the music being performed,
I sung along to the songs I knew until I saw her.

Quite simply, she was a certified dime.
A perfect ten if you prefer,
She was quite a sight to behold.

It only took a quarter-hour to summon courage,
To simply walk over and try to charm her,
Merely to add her to my group of friends.

If I had a dollar for every girl I asked out,
I would not be any wealthier.
Now this may not make any real “cents”

I may not be financially strong,
But creatively, I am nothing short of rich.
