"Penny"

A Scottish lad and lass were sitting together
on a heathery hill in the Highlands. They had
been silent for a while, when the lass said,
"A penny for your thoughts."

The lad was a bit abashed, but he finally said,
"Well, I was thinkin' how nice it would be if ye'd
give me a wee bit of a kiss."

So she did so. But he again lapsed into a
pensive mood which lasted long enough
for the lass to ask him, "What are ye thinkin'
now?"

To which the lad grumbled, "Well, I was hopin'
ye hadn't forgot the penny!"
