Annabelle - A Ringing Discovery

Annabelle nudged her nose against a large, speckled metal watering can resting near the bottom step. When the side of her head bumped it, her yellow bell clinked against the tin with a deep, hollow gong that hummed all the way through the metal! Annabelle pulled back in surprise, then leaned forward again, tapping the curved side with one plush hoof. They can gave another low, echoing thrum, completely different from my usual merry chime. Annabelle rested her chin right along the round rim, listening closely until the very last vibration faded into the quiet morning air.
