Mechanical Duck

James W. here. My story is my first memory. It haunts me not like a memory but something special happened that day to make it my first memory. I was walking. I was talking but unsteady as I was young. Not much different that I am 81 years later. I was over a metal big wash tub and there was a yellow duck or bird splashing around when I turned the key and watched the wings splash in the water. There were bits more some family sisters and brothers were around. It was summer and refreshing to play around the water on a hot day.

Why do I have this memory pop in and out like other unstable thoughts that run like adolescence rivers of mirrors. Thought. Nothing dramatic. Just a slow fun day playing in a tub of water with my mechanical duck.
