Pickle Jar, (The), Inspirational Poems, Touching Stories:"The pickle jar as far back as I can remember sat on the floor beside the dresser in my parents' bedroom.

They ended with a merry jingle when the jar was almost empty. Then the tones gradually muted to a dull thud as the jar was filled. I used to squat on the floor in front of the jar and admire the copper and silver circles that glinted like a pirate's treasure when the sun poured through the bedroom window."
