Camping in Real Life

I sit in my home and I often pine
For the forest scent 

Three days in my smelly tent and I moan
For my bed at home

A tent or a mansion, why do I care
I’m not quite happy neither here nor there

Ahh, Gary. Well, tell it straight. This is a fun poem. Personally, I prefer the house, but not a huge mansion. Moon Harp
