A Tiny Treasure Chest

I scrambled down from the green blanket and hopped straight onto the smooth wooden coffee table! Right in the middle sat a shiny little metal mint tin with a hinged lid. I gave the edge a curious shove with both hands. Click! It popped open just a sliver! Inside was a clean paperclip and a faint, sweet smell. When I tried to climb up onto the corner to peek deeper, my foot slipped on the polished surface, sending the tin spinning like a tiny ice-skating sled across the wood. It bumped gently into a ceramic coaster and stopped. What a neat ride!
