Tiny Wooden Clatter

My paws trotted away from the clover patch straight over to the wooden fence, and WOW! A giant brown pinecone was sitting upright on the flagstone like a prickly pine tree! Did I inspect it gently? No way!! I took a running leap and belly-flopped right onto the woody scales! CRACKLE-SNAP! The stiff flaps bent beneath my plush weight, and the cone tipped over, rolling like a bumpy wooden barrel! I threw both paws around the spiky cone, riding it across the stone until it bumped against a mossy brick. Best crunchy pine carousel ever!
