Hi ! Can you please give me a really good metaphor, simile, juxtaposition or oxymoron for a beautiful sunset... but not on the beach. Thank you

SIMILE.  A
simile is a figure of speech comparing two unlike things,
often introduced with the word "like" or "as". Example: "A beautiful sunset is like the
twilight of a life
fulfilled."


METAPHOR.  A
metaphor is an analogy between two objects or ideas.
Example: "The beautiful sunset is a final farewell of the passing
day."


OXYMORON.  An
oxymoron (plural oxymora or,
more often, oxymorons) is a figure of speech that combines
normally contradictory terms appearing in a range of contexts. Example: "The beautiful
sunset birthed a new
evening."


JUXTAPOSITION.
juxtaposition is synonymous with contrast; two objects or
texts that oppose one another. Example: "The memory of the beautiful sunset burned
brightly in his mind."
