The Glass Wind Chime

I trotted along the stone promenade until a wooden bench beneath a hanging florist awning caught my attention! Dangling low from an overhead wooden trellis was a miniature wind chime strung with flat, sea-green tumbled glass pendants. The afternoon light turned each frosted oval into glowing candy! I bounded straight up onto the slatted backrest, balanced high on one foot, and swung my beak to bump the lowest glass piece! *Tink-clink-chime!* The frosted pendants kissed together in a light, watery flutter! I paused mid-step, tilting my head sideways to listen as the cool, crystalline ripple sang through the quiet breeze.
