Her golden blond hair making flips around her head
with the wild wind.
Deep curls going in every direction.
A serious,
determined
look in her blueish, green eyes.
Her cloths covered in the shadows
of a sunset.
She slowly backs up.
The golden brown leafs crunching
under her feet.
She reaches an unmarked
point in the ground and stops...
Everything stills for moment...
Her eyes lock on a branch and she

Jumps forward,
momentum carrying her
halfway up the strong trunk!
Hands garbing at anything, but

Sinking...
Sinking...
And hits the ground with the sound of

she has worked for

Then...
With the same determined look
in her eyes...
She slowly backs up, Again...
