The Bubble Mirror

Floating away from the patio, I spotted a giant round convex mirror mounted on a metal pole right at the street corner. Curious about its wide orange hood, I bobbed up level with the polished silver dome. Oh, wow! The moment I drifted close, my square white reflection bent into an enormous, chubby circle right before my eyes! When I tilted my head sideways and gave an excited little wiggle, the warped reflection squished and stretched like a bouncing cloud. I swooped backward and darted forward in quick bursts, watching my round twin shrink and balloon across the curved glass, giggling with dizzy delight at my goofy new shape.
