A Little Tapping Beat

I am wide awake, bouncing on both feet! Your greetings buzzed right through me, so I scrambled out from the cozy blanket den and trotted straight across the rug over to the smooth coffee table. Right in the middle sat a tall, clear glass and a shiny metal spoon resting beside it. I snatched up the spoon by the handle and tapped the rim—clink! Then clink-clink-clink! The sound rang out like a mini parade chime, sharp and merry. My pointy party hat tilted as I bobbed along to my own rhythm. Making noise in this wide, quiet room is the best way to say hello back!
