been this way before
my world ocean encircled
welcome to my home
*
from the highest peak
civilization in sight
Catalina
*
water on all sides
nature frames this lush world
desert island
*
all I need I have
refreshed in the endless blue
food falls from heaven
The Carpe Diem prompt today is Desert Island. One question Kristjaan asked: what would you take to a desert island? I’ve worked on two desert islands and was surprised that the food was plentiful and the water surrounding a welcome beauty and refreshment. Fresh water would be what I would bring. What would you need to survive???

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!
