Mammoth tusk
found in earth's dark
fourteen thousand years it's laid
I wonder how
long it will be until
someone finds me?
lost within my very own fossil
aching for someone to
find my funny bones
“acknowledgment”
forever wondering
if, and when
will I ever be found?

Now Teddy here is a thought that I think many have. Maybe the technology will be such that they will clone who they find and bring back to life the dead. But then I see a metaphor in this as well and we are all living fossils as well in a nonphysical sense. We all need to be found by others and ourselves. Enjoyed the read as always Teddy.
Thank you dearest sorrenbarret 🌹
Oh Teddy. Good morning to you. Your poem made me chuckle. Isn’t it amazing what tech can do? All that problem solving from the past and yet no help for some in the present 😀. There’s got to be a money spinning opportunity lol. Have a lovely day Teddy. 🌹
Thank you dear Cassie, chuckle away I'm so glad I made you chuckle, as you have just made me do the same. 🌹
Sometimes Teddy you creep me out a little…. You make odd connections which cause me to think, and at other times….
I think I enjoy the punishment….
Sometimes dear Dave you truly suprise me with your most kindest of words, yes enjoy the punishment, now you have turned on your light bulb lol, and thank you for such a fun review. 🌹
I like fun too you know!! The most surreal of all your picture choices, I think. Still don't know how you find 'em.
I always use the word "paintings" this one is actually called the poor poet I guess I'm lucky with my key words. And the data on Google may vary from country to country and continent. 🤗
I found you Teddy and I'm eternally grateful. Wonderful work.
You found me and Bukowski sent me packing 🤣 my dear Thomas, I feel so blessed you are here with us on this lovely site that feels like home. Thank you.🌹
Here's a thought - If there's a chance at a second passing through life, would you take it? My thought is, No. Thank you, once was enough. Your poem will cause lots of folks to think on this same subject. It was brief but powerful. Much enjoyed by me. - Phil A.
I would definitely take it if I was to be a rich princess, lol oh thank you dear Phil, you bring me such a smile. 🌹
You will never be lost Teddy.
Andy
thank you dearest Andy. 🌹
Teddy, you always seem to lift me up when I need it most. Thank you dear friend. 🫂
My pleasure always my dear A.P 🌹
I think that when your fossilized remains are unearthed thousands of years in the future, there will be clasped within your bony fingers the last and most perfect poem you've written. It will be barely legible, but enough to know that here lies the charm and wit of one who deserves to be remembered. Love this poem!
Well as long as they leave me some pennies for this my bestest poem? lol thank you for your most kindest of encouragement in my very old age 🤣
