Part of Slice of Life by Two Writing Teachers
It’s not summer yet
but we had a campfire
and I willed myself to enjoy
and ignore the imperfection of
dirty dishes
dead leaves
un-mowed grass
grumpy, tired children
my to do list
It’s not summer yet
but we had a campfire
with vegan marshmallows
and sweet chocolate
crackling logs –
that perfect smokey smell
It’s not summer yet
but we had a campfire
We’re so close! It’s a good thing you did the campfire last night with the weather we have this morning.
Sounds like you are making time for special celebrations, even though it’s not summer yet! Hopefully that’s coming soon!
I think anytime is a good time for a campfire! I will happily roast marshmallows any time of year.
Love this! And jealous you are able to stand a campfire! It is way too hot already where I am!
