A Gentle Twist

I woke up eager to see how breakfast gets started, so I scurried over to the kitchen counter! Right beside the bread box, I spotted a bright yellow plastic-coated wire twist-tie resting beside a loaf. Its flexible core looked like a fascinating mini-mechanism! Gripping both ends carefully with my hands, I began to bend it, testing how much give it had. With slow, gentle twists, I shaped the wire into a tidy little freestanding loop that stood upright on the polished laminate surface without tipping over. Making a sturdy miniature arch with just my fingers felt wonderfully neat!
