A Speckled Shadow

I noticed a smooth wooden clothes peg dropped beside the floor lamp base, casting a long slanting shadow across the rug? I crept over and nudged it with one soft front paw. The peg rolled half an inch, clicking against the metal disc, and stirred up a tiny puff of dust motes that swirled in a bright sunbeam! When I raised both paws to catch them, little sparkles drifted right across my white tummy fur like tiny floating stars? I sat back on the plush rug, watching the dust gently settle back into the quiet morning.
