The Girl of Forgotten Things

She is the one who sees true beauty

The blades of grass lay flattened 

Underneath children's eager footsteps 

But one girl was tender

The soles of her feet dancing away

Over the delicate meadow life

Skipping over painted flowers and leaves

Stopping, she sat by a sapling of a tree

The plant long forgotten was withered and bare

But the girl thought it was the most lovely of things 

And she caressed the rough branches staring in awe 

The girl was so special to the world

For she saw the beauty in small forgotten things

You give a lot of imagery in the lines...I would say I like this part the best from the verse:

The girl was so special to the world
For she saw the beauty in small forgotten things

Gives the ending of it all...she's not looking at the world like everyone...but transparent...like the innocent of a child does...

Pretty! Like the picture it paints! You could add more to this (about what the child sees?) But i like it short like this! Really says all it must and well done with the flow!
