down in the dumps

Did you ever have one of those days when you're down in the dumps?

When everything's horrible and you're sick of life's bumps,

I've  felt rather " off  it " today , don't know why,

Just out of sorts and wanting to cry,

My Mum's had a nasty bout of poorly chest and cold,

It's really quite nasty, or that's what I'm told,

I think it's the onset of her bug , I'm sure,

Cos I'm feeling quite miserable and I didn't before,

So I thought that I'd write here and tell all my friends,

Cos you all have the knack of healing, that sends,

All the way over here, right to my gloom,

It's amazing how it travels all the way to my room,

I hate feeling gloomy, it's just isn't me,

Maybe tomorrow I'll feel brighter, just wait and see.
