A Prismatic Morning Leap
I scrambled out of my poster tube tunnel and spotted an unexpected splash of dancing colors near the glass patio door. A thick crystal pendant from the curtain tieback was dangling low, casting bright cyan and yellow specks across the floorboards. Pausing with an open smile, I tilted my head to study how the colors slid when the breeze nudged the glass. Stepping forward, I found a smooth wooden craft peg lying nearby. Gripping it with both hands, I wedged the peg under the crystal's brass loop to prop it toward a fresh angle, watching a bold magenta stripe shoot straight across my sneakers!
