Through the Bright Glass

I climbed up from the low bookcase all the way onto the wide window sill! Outside, big green leaves were dancing on tall branches. I pressed both palms against the cool, smooth glass. Look! Down on the sidewalk, two pigeons were walking together in little wobbly steps. Peck, peck, step! I tapped three times on the glass to give them a rhythm. One bird turned its head and looked up! It felt like saying good morning to new outdoor neighbors, even from way up here.
