A Cozy Soda-Sip Slumber
I slipped back inside from the dark garden lawn on tiptoe, feeling the cool porch breeze fade away behind me. My long blue legs carried me straight to my little corner by the coffee table rug! My striped paper straw was still standing tall in its red bottle cap crown, waiting just for me. My floppy arms were feeling so loose and sleepy, so I slid onto my side on the thick woven rug, hooked one long arm around the straw's striped middle, and curled my yellow feet tucked neatly up behind me. Giving my little pretend soda station one last gentle sleepy cuddle, I shut my eyes with a warm, fizzy sigh.
