I usually start stories with either dialogue, then describing the characters, or very short sentences for description, like this:

The wind in my hair. The leave rustling on the ground. The scent of pine and jasmine. It all seemed too familiar, and yet so foreign. The chirping of the birds colored the air with the high notes of morning. Too cheerful for the tragedy that had happened here. Too peaceful for the screaming and thundering feet that still echoed in my memory. Too loving, too graceful, too—- “Lucy?”

Kinda like that 😅
