The Jiggling Needle

I wiggled out through the front door flap and trotted down the porch steps to explore the garden path! Tucked beside a mossy flowerpot on the stone ledge, I spotted the neatest little novelty: a dropped brass pocket compass. When I tapped its clear glass face with my knitted foot, the red needle gave an energetic spin and locked straight onto my belly! I propped my selfie stick right against the knurled metal rim, angling my camera to catch the sky reflecting across the dial. Doesn't it look like the entire universe is giving us directions to our next big expedition?
