As a little girl
I loved to spin coins
Pennies, nickles, dimes, and quarters
I just kept spinning them and spinning them
O, why did they always have to stop
They spin in circles but stop so suddenly
And pause for someone to start them again
A spin for a life
round and round we go
At first we start off fast
And grow slower as time goes on
But just like all things
It stops, stops dead cold
Will it have a chance to spin again
Who will pick it up
And twirl it once more?

'A first we start off fast'
The first word should be 'at'. This is original you took the thought of a small object and turned it into the big picture idea. Good work much approved.
