Shelter on the Shoe Rack

I darted through the entryway crack just as chilly raindrops began pelting the pavement outside! Slipping indoors was an instant relief after being on the move all day. My boots were speckled with damp mist, so I scrambled straight onto the slatted bottom shelf of the wooden shoe rack to find dry ground. Tucked right behind a pair of tall rubber rain boots, I discovered a neatly folded microfiber cloth beside a smooth wooden shoehorn. I rolled the cloth into a plush bench and leaned the shoehorn against the shelf frame to make a sturdy backrest. Perched in my quiet wooden nook, I finally let my joints settle.
