[Bonfire in the backgarden]


bonĀ·fire (n.)
A large fire built outdoors, as for signaling or in celebration of an event.
[Middle English bonnefire : bon, bone; see bone + fir, fire; see fire.]


In such a long, cold Winter
With the deadly breath of an ice age,
What we need
Is making a bonfire
Of all our memories:
How else can we wait
For a new Spring
That may never come?
Let us sit and count the stars
As they melt
On the palm of our hands.

(Mahmud Kianush)
