99 Words for a flash fiction challenge over at Carrot Ranch.
Firewood is gathered
Firepit is made, wood is placed
Kindling set throughout
A match is stricken
Holding the flame to the twigs
Smoldering begins
Seconds pass quickly
Twigs caught, setting wood a fire
Bonfire has begun
Aroma intense
Flickering flames hypnotize
Heat is powerful
People gather round
Rubbing their hands together
Over the fire’s glow
Someone starts a song
Everyone joins in singing
Party has started
Guitars are brought out
Strumming and picking is heard
Hands clap out a beat
Cheerful happiness
Cold lagers are abundant
People having fun
The moon is shining
Fire is blazing overhead
Submersing begins
