Springboard on the Couch

Morning light came streaming inside, and I darted back in from the balcony door! Enough tiles and dirt—I wanted bounce. I bounded straight across the floorboards on my long arms, charged up to the low fabric sofa, and lunged. Whump! My palms sank into the plush cushion. Right between the pillows sat a loose red knit coaster. Perfect target! I planted both arms deep, sprang my hips high into the air, and caught the round coaster in mid-hop. It flew across the seat and wedged upright right into the deep cushion crease! High bounce complete!
