A Rolling Discovery

My soft toes bumped into something smooth and round resting near the skirting board. It was a bright red rubber bouncy ball, just sitting there quietly! I crouched down and gave it a soft nudge with my plush palm. It rolled forward with a gentle hum, bumping lightly against the doorframe before rolling right back toward my feet. Seeing it return like a polite little friend made me giggle. I carefully nudged it again, timing our gentle back-and-forth roll until it rested safely against my toes.
