What exactly does the term Pennies from Heaven mean?
I have always heard that it is an angel letting you know they are with you in spirit. (Author unknown) I found a penny today Just laying on the ground. But it's not just a penny, this little coin I've found. Found pennies come from heaven, That's what my Grandpa told me. He said Angels toss them down. Oh, how I loved that story. He said when an Angel misses you, They toss a penny down. Sometimes just to cheer you up, To make a smile out of your frown. So, don't pass by that penny, When you're feeling blue. It may be a penny from heaven, that an Angel's tossed to you. ###################### Contrary to what people might idealistically believe - poems written in 1988 as is the one by Charles Marshburn above, or urban legends of actual heaven sent (no pun intended) pennies from angels - the phrase "Pennies from Heaven" appears to have originated as a way to explain an unexpected windfall. From Oxford English Dictionary: "e. pennies from heaven: money acquired without effort or risk; unexpected benefits, esp. financial ones. Also (in sing.): a windfall, a godsend (rare). [1st two citations:] [1928 A. BURSTEIN Ghetto Messenger 91 The gentleman, being cognizant of 'pennies falling from heaven' and other tricks.., appeared to take it seriously.] 1936 J. BURKE (title of song) Pennies from heaven." The first citation appears to be a coincidence. "Pennies falling from heaven" was just a newsworthy wordsmith way of reporting actual pennies falling from the sky. The song from 1936 is about being thankful for the little things, because they are treasures beyond compare - blue skies and new moons, and raindrops with which you can trade for or purchase sunshine and flowers (Pennies from Heaven). My own interpretation is that it is a play on the biblical phrase "Mana from Heaven", which is also used in the present as a way to explain providential fortune when something is needed.
