I wrote this collection of poems because I have read extensively and the more I read the more fascinated I became with the relationships of animals and people with one another. I believed, at the time, there would be little need for another book of poetry but while analyzing my own observances and beliefs, the genuine need for more lines that rhymed with a cadence of life took me over. I wanted to make the facts as much as can possibly flow evenly with true feelings about my life and others who have surely experienced a deep down desire to put pen to paper. I caught myself daydreaming about someday seeing the name Penny Aiken on the front cover of some kind of book. Writing in first person lets me live mentally the actions that are being relayed in the poems. Naming my book A Penny for Your Thoughts just seemed to fit the mold. It sounded right to everyone I mentioned it to so I finally sold myself on using it. I have tried to write such a book."
