Chasing the Dust Mote

A bright patch of morning sunshine stretched out across the hardwood floor, and tiny floating specks of dust were dancing in the beam! I spread my wings wide, lowered my round belly, and sprinted straight into the light. I leaped up, snapping my wings together to catch a glowing speck, but tumbled right onto a soft woven floor cushion. When I popped back up, a stray wooden clothespin was lying there. I bumped it with my snout, sending it sliding across the sunny floorboards into the warm spot. Captured the sunlight zone!
