Write a discovery poem. The narrator could discover an object, a person, an animal, a dishonorable deed, or any number of things. Poets can focus on the discovery, examine the aftermath, or even just mention it in passing.

ONE IN A MILLION


Even beneath rubble
Scuffed and covered with
Grassy mildew
A treasure stood out
Sparkling
Like a shooting star
Skimming across the
Night sky
I caught sight of
What others did not
A precious stone shining
Through the dark
And like a true explorer
Staked my claim
To you
My fair lady
Look what I found
A diamond in the rough
