Stretch out your arms, and embrace;
Feel the warmth with your finger tips,
taste the sunsets fruitiness on your lips,
warm silky streaks softly touch your face.
Taste the orange and lemon filling the sky,
blueberries, strawberries and pineapple too,
scents of roses in bloom fill the air through,
your body fluttering like a tiny butterfly.
The warmth moves down your skin,
a shiver follows with deep felt despair,
feel the chill of the moon in the air,
as the sun goes down and night sets in.

I think you have used some great imagery here but I am wondering as this contest seems to have something to do with the blind, although I admit I did not read the criteria, perhaps words such as bursting, and sweet or tangy or warm, which you have used... words that describe tastes and touches that a blind person can be exposed would be best used I am thinking. Just a thought. You have some great imagery here as is. Good luck in the contest!
