The world around him shimmered and then came into focus.

The world shimmered through endless distorting tears while he pressed back the hot earth, patting it around her still body.

At once the world around them shimmered.

The world around the cadets shimmered and dissipated.

The world shimmered and did a final jig, becoming the California I had been seeking.

Immediately the world around Janeway shimmered, and when it became clear again she was standing in sickbay.

The world shimmered, sparks of light illuminating the gray.

All the world shimmered with life, and I was a part of that network.

The world shimmered and a warm breeze touched his skin.

The world, close up, shimmered like a dream-thing, and yet it somewhat resembled a great, alien jewel.
