A Bold Step Out

I pushed past the patio boundary this morning, eager to see what lay beyond the yard. Trotting along the flagstone path, I reached the weathered cedar garden gate left ajar just wide enough for me to slip through. On the sunny gravel path outside, a vibrant blue fallen feather lay propped against a terracotta planter. I knelt down and picked it up, admiring how smoothly the barbs caught the morning brightness. Tucking it securely behind my ear like a glamorous stage plume, I turned toward the quiet neighborhood sidewalk, ready to explore the block. #Barbie #Selenaquintanilla #Mattel
