200th who'da thought it!!!

Not me thats for sure, after along trail round looking for the perfect 200th i came home empty handed! i was putting shopping away and thought why not, have a fruit & veg blip! after all it is colourful and it makes a change, plus it marks a point of me been more healthy and feeling good.

Blips been a life line to me this last 200 days, it really has, to meet such nice caring people and the odd idiot is good lol, im really enjoying myself on blip and as you know i took it up so I would get out more and have something to focus on when out, other than been frightened to death and it has worked most days :0)


found this little poem hope you like)


Radish

She has let herself go:
the stringy gray-green mop,
stubble sprouting from her curlicue tail,
soil stains on a faded red leotard
bulging with crisp, white flesh.

Smoldering root, once
she drew fire from the soil,
hope, sulphur, and sex.
Plucked into air, now
she trembles in hand,
a scalded heart
still pulsing.
