Day 310: Thing by Missy

and so my obsession with things with wings continues...

the moths
by mary oliver

There’s a kind of white moth, I don’t know
what kind, that glimmers
by mid-May
in the forest, just
as the pink mocassin flowers
are rising.
If you notice anything,
it leads you to notice
more
and more.
And anyway
I was so full of energy.
I was always running around, looking
at this and that.
If I stopped
the pain
was unbearable.
If I stopped and thought, maybe
the world
can’t be saved,
the pain
was unbearable.
Finally, I noticed enough.
All around me in the forest
the white moths floated.
How long do they live, fluttering
in and out of the shadows?
You aren’t much, I said
one day to my reflection
in a green pond,
and grinned.
The wings of the moths catch the sunlight
and burn
so brightly.
At night, sometimes,
they slip between the pink lobes
of the moccasin flowers and lie there until dawn,
motionless
in those dark halls of honey.

Day 309: Thirst by Missy

no one would pose with a mouthfulla sand for me...
i've been known to pound some gatorades...

Day 308: Won by Missy

someone won. someone did not.
the same one that won, usually wins.
the one who did not win, usually does not win.
i don't feel like I'VE won, when i see them playing
the gamecube rather than the wii........

Day 305: Creature by Missy

“Be daring, be different, be impractical, be anything that will assert integrity of purpose and imaginative vision against the play-it-safers, the creatures of the commonplace, the slaves of the ordinary.”
~Cecil Beaton

Day 304: Glinting by Missy

What the Carpenter Said

THE moon's a cottage with a door.
Some folks can see it plain.
Look, you may catch a glint of light,
A sparkle through the pane,
Showing the place is brighter still
Within, though bright without.
There, at a cozy open fire
Strange babes are grouped about.
The children of the wind and tide--
The urchins of the sky,
Drying their wings from storms and things
So they again can fly.

Day 303: Repellent by Missy

cedar is a repellent, right?!

Day 301: Mate by Missy

Day 300: Third by Missy

today's theme is third... it's also the 300th day!!
um, wow, right?!
my photo doesn't have anything to do with the theme and i tried hard to make
some sorta connection with my photo, but i simply cannot... so i apologize.
today was too important not to post this photo...
my first niece arrived today!
dorothy eleanor, aka, dottie!!
she's super adorable...
and no lie!!
i think she sorta looks like me!!

Day 299: Chalk by Missy

went to the basement with an idea for chalk...
it didn't work out...
i'm experimenting with light...
i don't know what i was doing to have the light so blasted out,
but the results were cool...
other than some sharpening and black point level adjusting,
it's un-altered...

Day 298: Orbit by Missy

ha! playing with light is super fun!!
still working out the 2nd curtain sync, but i'm happy with how this turned out!!

Day 297: Air by Missy

my photography class met tonight at the art museum for a night shoot...
all i wanted to do all night was this!
write words in the air with light!!
we spelled out fleisher, the name of the school (we'll call it) where the class is being offered...
the first 'e' being backwards makes it SO much better!!!!!!!
(and no! that wasn't me!)
