Long time no hear from! I have spells of writing a lot and then not much for different periods. I am doing FAWM again and thought I would share this lyric.
Camping
© 2017 Cindy Prince
From a young age I so loved to camp
Though real young we had no tent
We'd sleep in the car or on the ground
It was always time well spent
We continued this tradition with our kids
From babies up through their teens
I so treasure all those nights out in the wild
Seeing wildlife and those beautiful scenes
Chorus
Ah, the campfires, the marshmallows, the fun
Those sweet little faces full of wonder
Swimming, hiking, watching the setting sun
The appearance of the stars to sleep under
Bridge
Looking for mushrooms, violets, dutchman's britches
Forget about money-those were my riches!
Now that they kids have become adults
We don't get to camp like we used to
But with a Granddaughter and now a Grandson
The tradition will start over anew
Repeat Chorus

I hope you could afford a tent by the time you had kids.

Hi
I love the imagery and word pictures you used in the lyric. Fun song.
