On the beach of Ipanema Brazil, where the sun dipped into the horizon like a hidden treasure a great orange sunset , blue and white clouds with shades of gray as the hours passed and the afternoon , the sunset was transformed into a work of art live captivating everyone on the beach from elos dogs passing by along with vendors and ice cream vendors . The clouds were tinged with soft orange tones that looked like cotton with their changing colors, as if they were candles lit in a secret ceremony on a Sunday afternoon on a day like today. The sky became a canvas of liquid gold that captivated looks from the largest to the smallest all from Ipanema , where the sun seemed to paint his last portrait before disappearing completely so happened today's sunset after a few hours of beach and sea enjoy a day of ipanema and its sunset .
The beach, usually lively with bathers and peddlers who came and went with their wares and ice cream all along the beach, became a temple of silence and contemplation for all visitors to this tourist area. Those who until that moment had been busy in their boats to take the tourists out for a stroll along these shores, now stopped on the shore to wait or disembark the tourists or visitors arriving for a stroll, staring at the horizon with this beautiful sun that today gave them a gift, as if they were paying homage to the greatness of the orange twilight with a bright and illuminated sun.
The sand, warm and silky, seemed to feel the scent of the sea and respond to the call of the sunset very marked by the wheels of the vendors , chairs and things of the people who visit us daily . The leaves of the palm trees waved gently in the wind that today was strong and rough, lifting the sand of the place in seconds all filled with sand dust from the sea, creating a soft song that mingled with the murmur of the water and the murmur of the spectators who with phones in hand were encouraged to take pictures in front of this beautiful sunset. The sky and the sea were in a perfect balance that left us all astonished with these beautiful colors, as if the creation itself was being created again at that moment for the delight and enjoyment of each of those present on the beach.

The songs seemed to flow like the sea and the roar of the waves in the distance, deep and melodious, and the air seemed to carry them with a longing of gratitude and happiness to be in this beautiful place with this great sunset in Ipanema gathered all happy as if we were young again.
A seller of books and other items was passing back and forth offering his books in very good physical condition , he had been waiting for his customers on the shore to see if they dared to buy one or at least read it because nowadays he hardly buys books because everything is digital , now he felt he had reached his destination after hours of walking on the warm sand of ipanema . Rilke's books and Pablo Neruda's poems seemed to vibrate with the energy of the sunset under his poetry and the people listening to him were laughing at the seller. The poems seemed to dictate the lyrics of the music that combined very well with that bright sunset , and the music became a symphony of colors and feelings that offered us the sea and the seller everything fit very well at the right time .
Among the spectators who enjoyed these unique moments in our lives was , a young girl sat on the sand , with her sandals , her light bikini and her hair loose watching and taking millions of pictures for her memories in Ipanema . Her eyes would close as she received the shower of smiles and laughter from her friends with whom she shared music, songs and photos full of unforgettable moments. It seemed that the world had stopped in that instant for the enjoyment of the sunset or sunset before our eyes , and time was but a luxury in this fleeting and perfect bright and perfect moment of this beautiful day at the beach . She seemed to feel the poetry of the instant of her friends , the sun and the singing of the whole environment that surrounded her , as if the poet had said young enjoy your youth as time does not spare anyone : " Time is a luxury that we must leave on the beach in this wonderful day that today the sun is hidden before you , to be happy in every moment of our lives time and space ".
The young woman with a slender and beautiful body , which at that moment seemed a princess of light enjoyed the moment as the poet suggested , also seemed to feel the mystery of the sunset before her beauty and brilliance of that beautiful sunset . It seemed that the horizon was saying the sun and the sea were calling her and saying: "Come, young man, come and listen to my call I am calling you come to my kind hypnosis . I have secrets to tell you and tell you about me and about you, you are a beautiful woman, and a thousand stories to tell you". And she, without a doubt, seemed to feel that the adventure was calling her from far away with the phone in hand taking thousands of pictures of that place and experience lived on that day, and that she could not miss that opportunity to immerse herself in the mystery of the creation of nature and god and all its mysteries of that moment.
And then as if by magic the sun began to disappear into the water that this beautiful young woman , as if the magic of the night had begun to work as the sky and the sun faded with the passing minutes on the horizon , the sky was illuminated with a series of bright stars that seemed to dance on the head of the young woman thus looming the arrival of night in minutes . The arms of the sun stretched out over the earth as if to say come with me I want you next to me, as if it were blessing humanity and me above all plus you who read me.
