The Buzzing Thumb Piano

I trotted across the soft living room rug and found a little wooden thumb piano resting flat against a woven floor cushion! Hehe, squeee! It had a neat row of shiny silver metal tines jutting out just like miniature gymnastics diving boards! I planted both plush paws firmly onto the longest middle key and gave a brave, bouncy press—hup, boing! Twang-plink! A rich, soothing chime hummed through the hollow polished timber, buzzing tickly-sweet right against my fuzzy belly. I rested my chin against the smooth wooden body to feel the soft, fading vibration, letting out the sleepiest, happiest giggle as the quiet evening filled with peaceful bedtime music.
