100

The 100 Blip contender and probably better, right?

When I was a little girl, my brother told me about a great friend of his who was completing his final exams in college. Nearing the end of the paper, a vast sheet of white lay before him along with the final question:

"What is courage?".

The friend left the page blank and wrote simply at the base,
"This is courage".

I somewhat feel that this is a bit of that. It's a minimalist image, as bare as that of the exam paper, yet it is what it is and you may see or not see what's intended. It's my 100th. So you better enjoy.

And here's something to you all out there.

From Scotland to Finland, I've travelled so far
Ethereal beauty to the downright bizarre
Insight to places I'm unlikely to see
From Iran to Oregan, the cities and Sea

I'm Inspired, Designed, Everyday, Visually
Not quite 42, I'm happy to say,
If I stay in the Present,
I'll have Fun all the Way

We have our own jargon, like a club we're all in
Don't mean to exclude those who are not of our kin
But it's like this when you get so involved in your passion
For me it's my life, my blood, not a fashion

My head full of thoughts for the day's Blip ahead
And when midnight approaches it's the time I most dread
If I haven't yet taken, the shot of my dreams
I've let myself down, not a part of the team

I know I've neglected my dear friends of old
My 3 year long blog, for this homely abode
My cupboard of films for the latest digi whore
Big Fella wide angle for the 50, what's yours?

As a kid I would see that frame in my head
The one that bugs me from morning til bed
An unquenchable thirst, a scratch I can't itch
A lover who can't quite hit that spot if you hitch

Those Moments when Comments fill your heart and you hum
Beauty of an Orchid, Gaia, a Plum
Refresh, Reload, always aching for tips
This Blip's Starting Over for the next 100 Blips
