THE GHOSTS OF CHILDREN

CHILDREN'S ROUNDABOUT- DILAPIDATED AND UNUSED 
This childrens roundabout was seen in a field....now dilapidated and unused it seems to hold the 'ghosts' of all the children who have enjoyed many happy hours playing on it.
I find this a sad object....something that at one time gave so much pleasure and now just forgotten..!!

Very good capture of an abandoned item that once used to bring joy and happiness to children.

Peace :)
