A Ring of Glass

I marched right up the dining chair and scrambled onto the huge polished table! Sitting right under the warm hanging lamp was an empty, heavy glass tumbler. Without even thinking twice, I leaned both hands against the smooth rim and gave it a giant push to hear what sound it made! It slid forward just a little inch, but the crystal made the clearest, highest singing hum across the whole quiet room! I pressed my ear right to the clear glass curve to listen to the ringing echo, completely amazed by how loud a gentle tap could be!
