When depression overshadows sunlight,
making me pine for Nature's solitude;
I head off to my favorite campsite.

Nature's tranquility is a delight;
while city life tends to leave me unglued,
when depression overshadows sunlight.

When I'm debating choosing fight or flight,
slipping into a melancholy mood,
I head off to my favorite campsite.

Replacing neon lighting with starlight
gets my spirit rekindled and renewed,
when depression overshadows sunlight.

At those times when nothing I do feels right,
and the whole world adopts an attitude,
I head off to my favorite campsite.

I love to sit alone in the moonlight;
and enjoy Nature's tranquil quietude.
When depression overshadows sunlight,
I head off to my favorite campsite.

A great way to cope. Get out in nature. So glad my mom told me, when I was a young mom, to go outside sometimes. Just a walk to the park helped immensely. God bless and Congratulations!
