Allow me to paint you a world of beauty, let me show you the world through my eyes.
Imagine the mountains, the glorious grey peaks sprinkled with a dusting of white snow
Below, picture trees coming from the ground, reaching up to say hello to the heavens.
The forest welcomes a beautiful meadow springing with flowers and startling green grass.
Stallions run, frolicking, their manes swaying in the breeze as their young learn the world.
Butterflies spread their wings, innocent beings only adding to the beauty of the landscape.
Birds glide in the wind singing their songs to the wilderness as they play, free.
The sun blankets the world with warmth, caressing Mother Nature’s creations with love.
Fluffy clouds flow gently in the endless blue sky, waving to the earth as they pass through.
You have seen the earth’s beauty through my eyes, show me the world through yours.

An interesting one for sure.
I'm not sure where your world is, but I'd much rather see it from your point of view than from me.
Thanks for entering and good luck!

You have done a lovely job of telling me what you see, but if I was blind, I still don't think I would have a clue as to what these things look like. Someone who has always been blind has to learn sight through the other senses- what they can hear, taste, touch and smell.
