My Found Poem- Introduction
The theme of my found poems is love. I got my inspiration from my boyfriend. The first source I used was a Victoria Secret coupon. I chose this source because it had a heart on it and on the opposite side of the coupon it said love. The coupon has a picture of underwear and my goal was to show how the love we share is from what's underneath and not just what's on the outside. My methods to achieve the goal was that I told myself underwear's go underneath so I wanted to talk about loving someone for what's inside. The second source I used was a wall cling he brought me. I chose this source because it talks about being beautiful. My goal was to talk about how beautiful our love is and how he sees my beauty even when I don't. My methods to achieve the goal was that I would talk about the beauty he saw even though I don't see it. My last source was a note he wrote me. I chose this source because he talks about how much he loves me. My goal was to talk about how our love will go on forever. My method was to talk about how our love will last a lifetime and show it through stars.
