When I’m feeling stressed
And want to unwind,
Nature gives me the peace
I need to find,
The beach is one of the places
I love most,
It is calming to walk
On damp sand at the coast.
I’ve kicked piles of damp seaweed
When I’ve felt depressed,
I’ve hurled stones into the water
When I’ve been stressed,
I’ve wandered for miles on my own
When I’ve needed some space,
And on a wet day
Rain has washed tears from my face.
