The Great Chart

I hopped down from the entryway bench straight onto the bristly coconut doormat! Anchored right beside the heavy front door was a pair of giant worn sneakers, and wedged between them was a folded paper city map, creased like an ancient navigational chart! I threw my soft shoulders back, grabbed the stiff paper edge, and wrestled until it crackled wide across the polished floorboards. Look at all those winding blue and green routes crisscrossing the avenues! The uncharted territory beyond our front threshold is calling, and I’ve officially charted our morning voyage!
