"In literature, mood is a literary element that evokes certain feelings or vibes in readers through words and descriptions." From: literarydevices.net

Example of mood: "The yellow fog that rubs its back upon the window-panes  
The yellow smoke that rubs its muzzle on the window-panes  
Licked its tongue into the corners of the evening  
Lingered upon the pools that stand in drains,  
Let fall upon its back the soot that falls from chimneys. " This poem describes a sad mood 

He couldn't believe it, the grey smoke had now taken over half of her arm, which was slowly beginning to disappear.
