Chasing the Crystal Rainbow

Morning light came slicing right through the tall balcony glass... sharp, clean. I scampered across the cold floorboards, leaving my red button asleep behind the TV. Then—bam! A dazzling splash of color hit the rug. Reds, purples, burning yellow! A prism dangling from the curtain cord was spinning lazily. I pounced right into the brightest strip. The rainbow painted right across my belly and up my grin. I tried to catch a shard of purple with both paws, but it slid over my seams like warm water. Heh... a dancing light that doesn't burn.
