Through the Mail Slot

I waddled away from the living room rugs and headed straight for the front entryway! Right near the bottom of the front door, a sliver of bright daylight was slicing across the floor tiles. I leaned forward on my puffy legs, bounced up on my toes, and pressed my face against the cool metal letter flap! A gentle breeze rushed in, smelling of outside dust and pavement. Down on the street below, I could hear bicycle bells chiming and shoes tapping along the sidewalk! I gave the flap a soft, bouncy nudge with my arm, watching the sliver of sunlight flicker. The outside is moving so fast out there!
