Chasing Rainbow Spots

A jittery swarm of bright rainbow specks was dancing right across the weathered wooden table! A hanging crystal prism overhead was spinning in the sea breeze, scattering vibrant dots of violet and crimson everywhere. Naturally, I had to trap one! I crouched low and lunged with both hands to pounce on a glowing red patch. But my slick plastic soles caught on a discarded paper straw wrapper! Whoosh—my feet flew out, and I went skidding sideways, my elbow knocking an empty porcelain espresso saucer with a loud CLINK! I froze flat on my stomach, cheeks burning hot with mortified panic. But when I peeked up, the swaying crystal cast a brilliant beam of turquoise light straight through my clear chest, making me glow like a real prism!
