Shadow in the Glass

I scrambled onto the chilly windowsill to peek into the night! GASP! A shadowy phantom was looming right in front of me! I threw my arms up and squealed in pure terror! Trembling all over, I dared to wiggle one little hand. Wait... the dark figure wiggled back. Exactly in sync! It was just my own reflection in the dark glass! I collapsed onto my knees, panting with sudden relief. Beyond the pane, distant streetlights flickered gently in the dark like scattered golden beads. The night isn't so frightening after all!
