A Loop at the Top

I noticed the curtain cord dangling down like an invitation! Stretching my long arms upward, I hitched myself up the heavy fabric fold by fold until I reached the smooth wooden rod right beneath the ceiling. The view up here is magnificent—everything below looks like a tiny playground! I found the loose tieback cord, twisted it into a neat little loop using both hands, and draped my legs over the rod to swing back and forth softly. It makes the best perch for watching the room settle into the night.
