Found poem in the comments









It is funny how we read our world.

We always want so much and want it now,

And, sometimes, there is only so much we can do.



I would like to join you on the search for a day of no plans,

Turn the corner and see the possibilities blooming.

These unexpected moments, I believe, are gifts.



Take time for the small moments.

Those are the moments we will remember –

Simple, pure, and connected



Go with the right side of things.

It makes life so much grander.



You have to do what makes your heart happy.

I'm just happy to be writing.



This daily writing,

That day to day of seeing and living,

Helps us

To notice the good in our lives,

Be more mindful and aware.



Would sure like to sit by you anywhere and tap away on the keys.

Sitting together over a red teapot seems very good to me.



It is no small thing to give yourself the time for writing.

  1. what a charming idea. Even when one can't think of anything to write, one can always find something. These thoughts go together so well. How long did it take you to compile it?

  2. What a great idea. My students like doing found poetry because they didn't have to come up with their own words.
