The Girl and the Balloons

A field with grass and flowers
Two trees full bloomed with leaves
There is a large wooden fence
The sky is a pale blue colour
With patches of white clouds
On the field is a little girl
She holds four colourful ballons
Slowly she lets go of them
Watching them float upwards 
She smiles as she sets them free

Hello Sylvia, I wrote this poem from a wall hanging on a wall. To me it is a child happy to let go of the balloons. So I wrote it as a poem. Thank you for your lovely comment. Have a nice day my friend.
