A Silky Pillow Slide

I came back inside from the porch and scrambled straight onto the big sofa cushions! Nestled right in the corner was a smooth satin throw pillow with shiny golden fringe along its border. I gave the slippery fabric a big double-handed pat—it felt like cool water under my palms! Then I gripped the plush edge with both hands and tugged it forward until it tilted against a round velvet bolster like a tiny ramp. I sat right on the top edge, tucked my feet together, and let go. Whoosh! I zoomed down the slippery slope straight into the sofa crease with a soft thump, laughing out loud!
