 | When I started working on this, I expected it would be a bit longer, but after writing four lines, I realized I had fully (and fairly succinctly) described the image I wanted to convey, and there wasn't much point in making it longer.
I wrote this while hiking Redington Mountain today - an overcast day in the fall.
And now my comments are longer than the poem itself. |  | This post has been awarded 36 stars by 8 readers. |  | This post is Part 16 of a writing series titled Stories and Poems About Mountains. |
The world's ablaze with crimson flames
That wildly lick at charcoal grays,
Consuming greens to fiery hues
Beneath a roiling, smoldering haze.
