Found Poetry

It
As she sat there through the long day
With coming hours with nothing to do,
nothing to see except the clouds moving by overhead
A mysterious thing happened.

Through the night, in the tossing chest,
 she listened to the waters that seemed always about to wash over them
All she knew was that a wave seemed to lift and carry swiftly on
She came upon a great box and broke it open

A beautiful gift from the universe had landed in her lap
She was so vibrant, full of love, generosity, and life

It had left its home 
It was a homeless and life meant little
But It became a part of her life
Slowly
Gradually

Despite the difficulties,
They became involved in everyday life, with each other

Within the exploration comes greater consciousness
It was what changed her life
