When I was a kid, I liked to lay on the grass and just watch the clouds go by. My Mom would say they looked liked mashed potatoes :) ... I really enjoyed your lovely poem, Jan. Very nicely penned!

Simple in verse but such a lovely picture painted in my mind. I too look at the sky often.

This transported back to my boyhood when I was poolside waiting, not too long, for the fluffy mass to pass so I could soak up the warmth. Enjoyed very much.
