There they were peeking out from under the green foliage
red against the green so distinct
a little worn but they reminded me of my youth ( laying things here and there)
then your smile joined mine for a moment
your white hair and wrinkles were no disguise for the young heart hidden in the garden

For those of you who regularly visit my site please forgive me for being remiss on my blogsite. I am the throws of publishing and along with that am part of the Kindle Book Review team oh and am gathering speed for my thesis so I am swamped to say the least….

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!

Interesting Moon…
I’m not quite sure I follow, but then again there are many
things that I don’t understand…
Excellent 55
Thanks for playing, and have a Kick Ass Week-End

Hmm too cryptic ??? I saw a pair of red slippers working away in the garden today and then I made eye contact with the dearest face. The eyes seemed to match the slippers in joy at working in the garden on a sunny day ( we live in California so we are still gardening)

Ohhhh, what a wonderful 55. I’m headed off to India Dec 1st for a four month stay, then five days in Korea on my return, after which I have to find a new place to live. All that is left of my belongings ( I really tried to down size ) are in storage.
Your header is gorgeous…could be Montara or somewhere near my Pacifica coast.
