Found Poetry Friday #31

.

 

I love poetry.
I am especially fond of ‘found poetry’, and I mean found in all its forms… found in book titles, found in magazines, on book pages, cut out words and sentences – you name it. There is so much possible when it comes to ‘found poetry’… and this kind of poetry is great to use on art journal pages also.

I therefore started FOUND POETRY FRIDAY – everyone is welcome to play along!

There is an “Inlinkz”-list at the end of this post. If you want to share your found poems, you are welcome to add your name to the list that will link us to your blogpost.

You can post your found poem on your own blog any time during the week, so you don’t have to make YOUR Fridays all about poetry – you just link us to the post that contains your poem. Please use the url that goes directly to you ‘found poetry post.’

Here’s my found poem for today.

I found the poem first by combining sentences from my stash of cut-out sentences. While the poem grew, I remembered an article in an old magazine about an American photographer Lois Greenfield who pictures dancers. It took me a while, but I found the magazine and the photo I was looking for –  and it all came together on a background of spray ink and paint (stamped with bubble wrap to create ‘bubbles’)

Did you find a poem last week that you wanna share?
