Same as the previous one. This time, I chose the word. The country/ continent was Africa, and I had drums for sound.

Adjective: causing great surprise or wonder; astonishing.

The sound of the music vibrations coming from the bongos and drums in the celebration of love soothed my aching ears. People were shouting in joy, but so many people rushed by me screaming that it got to the point of hurting. This music sounded like heaven.

I watched as young children were learning their first African dances. I watched as the elders sang the ancient song of our people. I watched as us younger ones learned to play the melodies that filled my ears. I was watching everything being passed down. It was all in the celebration of two souls loving one another. That's just the way it is.

And then I saw the man I loved walk up to me with out two children hanging off him. They were staining his white clothes, but he didn't seem to mind as he was smiling. He came and kissed me on my lips moving my white headdress up higher to see my face.

This moment was truly amazing.
