A Chalky Star-Made by NaukNauk

A fat stick of blue chalk was resting right in the middle of the garden path. *Tiptoe, tiptoe...* and lean! My nose nearly bumped its powdery crust. Was it a dry berry? A blue twig? I planted both boots, seized the blunt end with both mittens, and gave a hearty drag. *Screeech!* A sudden, bright sky-blue stripe slashed across the gray flagstone! Shh. Did I do that? I pushed it forward again, zigging left, then zagging right until three bold lines crossed into a crooked, dusty star. My gloves are dusted in turquoise, but look—a daylight constellation shining right under my feet!
