A Shiny Copper Token
I trotted past the cracked front door into the hallway runner to see what was happening outside! Near the elevator baseboard, a forgotten copper token was propped against the grooved metal door frame. I gave it an eager bump with my forehead jewel, and it clattered down, spinning like a top on the polished terrazzo! The spinning copper flickered with warm amber sparks under the hallway sconce. I wobbled quickly after it, tapping the rim with both stubby feet until it settled flat, catching my round reflection right in the gleaming metal.
