AUGUST DAYS….Day 2

 

It’s Monday again.  Today a new week begins.  What will this week bring in way of surprises?  I’m anticipating that is definite.  
A few days ago looking out the window I watched the clouds as they floated through the sky. I’ve always enjoyed just watching how they can change shapes from one thing to another.  I remember my fascination began in eight grade. I sat next to the windows.  After doing a test one day, I sat staring out the window.  I watched as fluffy clouds floated in the sky.  I can’t recall the shapes, but noticed how they changed. The other day I again watched how a poodle seemed to become a sheep and a flower seemed to loose petals. Again I’ve done a timed writing and did it about clouds. 
This is going to be an interesting month for Terry’s daily word.  This month is vintage television shows. Yesterday it was the original MICKEY MOUSE CLUB. I wanted to be a Mouseketeer like Karen and Annette.  I remember living with my aunt and uncle; I took one of my male cousin’s white tee shirt and printed my name on it with a black crayon.  The cousin was upset at first but laughed; my aunt not so much but she too thought it clever and funny. 
Naturally I did get punished; sent to my room and not able to watch television.  
Of course that wasn’t as bad as finding green food coloring in my Grandma Fisher’s kitchen cabinet and going into the bathroom to dye my hair. Please understand I was only four at the time and not a six year old with the white tee shirt. How memories pop into your head with only the mention of a movie or television show. I can’t wait to find out today’s show. 
Until tomorrow….take a moment to look at the clouds and enjoy your day; as always Stay Safe.

                     CHANGES
Clouds ☁️ like marshmallows float    
    through the sky
I see the shapes of different animals
 a poodle, a cat, a fish
As they move the shapes change 
The poodle becomes a sheep 
   the cat a pig
 the fish I can’t tell
Clouds interesting to watch 
  on a lazy summer afternoon

A white shirt with my name across the

A pair of mouse ears on my head 
How I enjoyed watching the Mickey
  Mouse Club….I’m still a fan of the 
    mouse
He’s still as popular today as when I 
     was young
