Found Poetry


Another set of ATCs - these were for a "found poetry" swap, in a red/white/black theme. Found poetry, for those not familiar with the concept, is where you take a page or pages of text and use the words on the page to make up a small poem.


It's challenging, but fun.


I had a book about Chinese ways of happiness or something similar, which I found in a charity shop. The words and the backgrounds with the Chinese lettering came from there.
