Today she lost it.
She had done all she could
to take care of it.
It was the last one.
It could never be replaced.
A tear
fell
as she was fitted
for dentures.
Thank you to Monkey Man who each week hosts a great group of 160s. Yep it’s short. A challenge for those of us who can’t say anything in less than 10,000 words. Join us for the fun!
thanks to Ashley Goode for the Lost photo

Thank you for visiting Moondustwriter. One of the many exciting things I've had the honor of doing is writing and publishing in multiple genres (including education) in E. African for E. Africa. As a writer, it is a thrill to write for children (on all continents) who want to learn.
I've been part of the blogging community for more than 13 years. Some old timers may remember the award winning (2011 Twitter Shorty ) blog community - One Stop Poetry. I was the co-producer of that fast growing blog community.
I am a published writer, poet, artist and photographer. I have written, as well as edited, for periodicals, radio, blogs and fellow writers.
There are many facets to this moon - my joy is in meeting you!

That would be hard to deal with. Kinda like the first gray hairs, but worse. My dentist told me, “There’s no reason you shouldn’t die with all your teeth.” Didn’t quite know how to take that. LOL
