A Treasure

Left at the curb side,

Like a bag of rags.

Who is to know

If it is a delivery or not?

 

Looks like just garbage

Left out for pick up.

Yet it was an expensive

Item not packaged well.

 

Fortunately I saw it,

And brought it in my house.

A treasure it was inside.

How lucky I saw it in time.

Finders keepers, losers weepers. I guess it wasn't a baby wrapped up in those rags or you would've gotten more than you bargained for.

I'm one who enjoys going dumpster diving and/or seeing what I might bring home on trash pick up day. One mans trash is another mans treasure. You just never know. I once carried home,a long and quite heavy coffee table that had been put out for trash pick up. I carried that table for over a block. That was 20 years ago, and that table is still in use today. It's amazing what people pitch.
