I Remember When
I remember when… I remember when I entered your home and saw your shining face for the first time, I was struck with the lightning of love that I have heard so much about. A fire was started that would light my life with a raging fire, then smoldering embers, flickering and illuminating my life forever. There are stories and songs about love at first sight, but words fail to embody the beautiful truth which I experienced when we made eye contact for the first time.

The Burning Of An Early Fall. Runner-Up in Return of the Night Owl Challenge.
I heard men arguing in the distance, their voices muffled by the violence of the weather. The year was late, and the snow was falling heavily. The night was black and cold; the moon and stars hid behind the clouds. I put another piece of wood on a small fire I had attempted to start. I got up and walked over to one of the covered wagons we were traveling with and rummaged through the various items stored in the back until I found the firewood. I grabbed four pieces, walked back to the glowing orange fire, and put them on. I put my hands closer to the heat hoping to warm them. Then, I heard screaming coming from where the men were arguing.
