Found Poems - Poems about Found

The path I knew has faded far, A stranger now am I, Beneath a cold and distant star, I watch the moments fly. A whispered name, carried on a wind that remembers more than I do. The familiar scent of rain, now a forgotten melody in a silent song. Fragments of laughter, once so clear, now just echoes in...

There was once a pink plaid elephant whose trunk I kissed to sleep. I won her fair and square— a coloring contest, Top Value Stamps. She slept beside me every night. Her trunk, softened by chewing. One ear, forever folding from a bent wire frame. And a stab wound— just below her left flank— a potato peeler, courtesy of my sister. Then one day, she vanished. We moved. Boxes swallowed childhood things. Grown-ups said...

No torrid steel rod cauterized my wounds for I couldn't lick the festering gashes clean. Your sharp-bladed tongue bit too deep, fangs plunged with each vile cursed scene. No mere prick or scratch did you inflict as thorns draw drops from a finger laid bare. You severed our marriage cord with a stare. Without gauntlet thrown before you I swayed when waylaid in...

I stand on top of the hill of hope looking back at where I had been, daylight was running before me and the strange heat in the atmosphere was spreading warm air everywhere and a slight winds anchored in and cool down the temperature within. The faces of time have travel eleven million miles with...

A lovely button pops out in the summer sun pick her up and she will bring you luck Walks along the beach, a seashell spun by the silk of the ocean, a little red truck Coconut sensation a radio pinned upon the ear the sky is blue, the sea is foaming Snapshot...

Born yonder east flickering behind the rolling sky. Majestic birth of light governs wonders for new and old eyes. Though northern winds crash and whistle around walking legs under hooded collar of wet yet thick, warm, heavy coat. Screwed up eyes know light shines bright between the lines of driving rain causing splash on tarmac roads. Heavy sway of...

I found out how freeing life can be When I began to finally simply see The deepest parts of the inner me Were never truly fulfilled satisfactorily. I found out how emotionally avoidant Those ones were, whom I found poignant. The real me is that of a degenerate. Neurodivergence always showing its spirit. I found out how I wanna be in love. I...

I found it when I was only three, and then I took it home with me. I put it deep within my pocket like a lover's precious locket. I found it calmly quelled each fear, so, for sixty years, I kept it near. One fine day, it said, "look at me". Why did I throw...

The tremor in my hand, not from the hunt, but the stillness after the endless pacing. Dust motes danced in the imagined beam of a lantern I never lit, searching corners already illuminated by the quiet hum of being. The map unfolded in my mind, marked with X's for treasures I swore were buried deep, while the weight of gold warmed my very pockets, unacknowledged currency of breath and heartbeat. I...
