A World of Sadness

You once had a WISTFUL life, you cut everyone with a sharp knife. I see you are WITHDRAWN, as you sit here out on the green lawn. Do not be so GRIM and gray, it is a pretty day. Your FEELINGS are in your mind, send them off to play in the wind. DEPRESSION hits everyone, it is not any fun. Do not find yourself SHROUD in it, let's go make a sweet banana split. Many say this MELANCHOLY of depression is not true, all I know is you look so blue. I do not want to see you GLOOMY any more. You need to take your life and soar.

Joyful spirit is always good for depression and sadness, I loved banana splits they remind me of youth and summer :)

Thank You for your note. Glad you like this write. Yes, a joyful spirit is always good for depression/sadness. Banana splits are great anytime of the year but extra great in the summer. Have a very blessed day.................
