Blind Sunset


Sunsets...oh lovely sunsets. My heart breaks for the blind who can not see this wondrous thing. To describe it in one way is unreasonable because a sunset is different for everyone one. But if I were asked to explain what it was to a blind person, I would say: A sunset is beautiful; it's like the feeling of the sun warming your skin except in colour. I'd say that it is the feeling of warm sand under your feet during a walk on the beach. A sunset is the calm sound of the waves hitting the shore. This time of day is when one of Mozart's Symphonies plays across the sky. It is calming like a hot cup of tea or a bubble bath. A sunset is miraculous and breath taking, it is a lover's first kiss and a loving heart. It tastes like ice cream- so sweet and savoury. To miss out on a sunset is to miss out on the something incredible. Yet, most people don't even take the time to stop and look at the sunset. It seems like the only people who see the sunset are blind sometimes.
