Mist drifts on snowy mountains,
slash piles burning:
molten eyes in a ghostly face
glowing above us

Eerie power.

No, this is the normal time for snow in the hills, and the logging companies burn their slash piles when the fire danger is low from the moisture of the snow. The glow is spooky, though!
just 17 words, and so vivid. Eerie, yes. My favorite line: “molten eyes in a ghostly face” …
Thanks. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Oooh…how vivid! Nice contrast between the snow and mist and the molten burning glow.
Glad you enjoyed it. It was a contrast, smoke and mist entwining above the glow…
