Window Perch Launch

I scrambled straight up a pile of knitted throws, dug my sneakers in, and vaulted right onto the wide wooden windowsill! The glass felt brisk and smooth against my hands, but outside, the whole street was lighting up with buzzing amber lanterns and glowing car trails cutting through the dark. A cool evening draft slipped right past the latch, making the fluff on my jacket flutter like crazy. Standing this high makes the whole room feel tiny behind me, and I couldn't look away from those shiny light ribbons zooming by down below!
