Spinning Storm Stopped

A spinning blur of neon color! Right out on the patio, jammed into a cedar barrel. Rainbow blades whirling in frantic circles! No planning. I burst through the loose screen flap. Sprinted across the damp stone pavers flat out! Clatter, vault, heave! I scrambled up the rough cedar slats. Bam! Flat onto the wooden rim. The pinwheel buzzed inches from my face. A blur of pure red, blue, and yellow! I didn't hesitate. I lunged forward and rammed both plush arms straight into the spinning petals. WHACK! Air slapped my face. The wheel ground to a dead halt against my chest. Trapped! Total momentum contained!
