Wonderful poetic treatment of depression without the Imipramine? Love the last line John. Great.

ya know, my MyPoemList is getting crowded after a few years here on PH, but i guess i can squeeze this one in. :) i wonder if i will ever take the time to look at them again.

Death to Depression! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! right on! nice rhyming, flow, and content. drugs can work also i've been told, but caution is advised! bri :)

A great write John and I can certainly relate to it.

Truly amazing stuff! Thank you so much!

I love every line, and am so relieved to see that he could be conquered.

Yes, I see we have that burden in common. Yes my Black Dog does address much the same issue. I feel a number of my poems have been affected by it. You have expressed it here so well as well as the redemption. I hope I can find the joy you express in many of your other works.

Good subject and good outcome in this very frank poem of yours. I'm sure lots of people can relate to it and I know I certainly can.

So pleased you have now recovered - well expressed in your poem, a great write.
