A Little Water World

You wondered about an aquarium, so when I slipped back inside from the lane, I sought out our own quiet water world on the low sideboard. Resting right beside a small planted glass bowl, I paused, watching the gentle green moss ball nestled at the bottom. Reaching out carefully, I pressed both plush paws against the curved exterior. The glass felt remarkably cool and smooth against my pads. A faint, steady hum vibrated through from the tiny aerator, sending a soft chain of miniature bubbles trickling upward with a gentle hiss that calmed the whole room.
