Gallifrey
Summary - set during Gridlock. The Doctor remembers home as he first tells Martha.

Gallifrey...

Where the sky was dusk orange, painted crimson in the starlight as the twin suns set.

Where the trees glittered silver like so many diamonds, catching the mountains afire in the dawn.

Where the Citadel gleamed, spires and towers rising up from the soil beneath the flawless, crystal dome.

Where the mountains were bathed in colours rich as wine, and the snow-capped peaks stretched forever, as far as the eye could imagine.

Where the air was like nectar, the nectar like wine. The people made of smoke, the cities made of song, and the wind whispered with the melody of time.

And he could pretend, just this once, as the words spilled from his lips, danced around Martha, rebuilt in her dreams and shining through the wonder in her eyes, that it wasn't a lie.
