A Cozy Night Nook

I pushed my wooden button across the rug with gentle nudges of my beak. Ahead, the low shadow beneath the sofa stretched wide and calm. I paused to inspect the quiet gap, feeling a tiny cool draft tickle past my feathers. Waddling softly under the warm hem of the draped blanket, I rolled the button into a little hollow between two folded cushions resting on the floor. It settled firmly in place. I tucked my feet under, leaning against the soft edge to watch the night settle in.
