Climbing Frame

The little girl walked the forest trail Her bare feet would never fail To find the path that led over grass, it led over sand To laugh and play on her sacred land Through the forest she ran, as fast as she could The trees were her best friend Climb their branches so high, touching the sky (Fearless) Climb until the end She reached this magical spot Her eyes, her eyes were caught Rising up, the forest made way, a castle of steel, her place to play A climbing frame, became her home, place to hide and roam She wanted to feel, the warmth of the steel Sometimes it felt unreal Upside down she would turn, every move she could learn This made her body yearn She was wild child Fearless and free She loved to be alone, alone But needed to flee From him, the master of the house He's mourning, the death of his spouse The mother she'd never known, her memory faded, no image was shown He had a powerful hand, she didn't understand, she left Entered her castle, she was it's queen Her hair so blond, almost gave light In this place her mind, safe and bright To the forest green
