Blind Sunset
How do you describe a sunset
to someone who is blind?
I will attempt to find the words,
so keep an open mind.
Blue is the icy snow you feel
on winter's cold, bleak day,
when breathing in the chilling air,
while riding in a sleigh.
Red is the warming of a fire,
when drinking some fine wine;
senses flushed with heady scent of
the smell of knotty pine.
Purple is a thundering storm,
on chilly autumn night.
Electric ozone in the air,
which sometimes gives a fright.
The orange is that tangy fruit,
which tastes so tart and sweet
and titillates your taste buds
with it's enchanting treat.
