A Glassy Spin
I hopped down from the bottom step straight into a warm band of sun on the flagstones! Right in the seam between two gray slabs, something bright flashed at me! A tiny, clear glass marble with a twist of blue ribbon trapped right inside! I gave it a soft tap with my round foot—whirr! It rolled along the sunken stone groove like a little runaway wheel! I scampered after it, arms out for balance, until it bumped gently into a cushion of velvety moss and stopped. A shiny sun-catcher hidden right in the path? What a find!
