No more grey mornings even when its winter and the sky is dull,
I can see the colours of the trees, I can now admire the beauty of the leaves,
people smile and say good morning , I can smile and greet them back,
NO more dread ,no more darkness , no amount of money can buy me this feeling
the simple things ,a cup of coffee ,a walk with my dog and laughter with old friends,
the things I had feared I have lost had never gone away, just hidden.
But best of all once again
I can feel the sun .
