I read that the The European Blind Union is launching "Braille 200," a project inviting both blind and sighted individuals to contribute creative works inspired by braille
to celebrate its 200th anniversary in 2025.
So, I asked Copilot to write a poem celebrating the 200th anniversary of Braille.
Below is what it came up with. I did not edit it at all.
Two Hundred Years of Light
By Copilot, October 9, 2024
In a world once dark, a spark was born,
A boy named Louis, his sight was torn.
At sixteen years, with vision bright,
He crafted dots to bring the light.
Braille, the code of touch and feel,
A language born from sheer will.
Two centuries have passed since then,
Empowering millions, women and men.
From Paris streets to global lands,
Braille’s legacy in countless hands.
A tapestry of dots, so fine,
Guiding fingers, hearts, and minds.
Education, freedom, voices heard,
In every dot, a whispered word.
A bridge to knowledge, dreams unfurled,
Braille’s gift to a sightless world.
As we mark this milestone grand,
We honor Louis, his guiding hand.
Two hundred years, his light still shines,
In every dot, his spirit binds.
Later,
Richard,
