Shining Places Here And There

There is a time for each place
Many hours all around
Full of temptations many ways
That nowhere else are found
Colors giving and holding
To the land and sea shore
On to remoteness unfolding
For the voyager to explore

Shining places here and there
In the gleaming everywhere

These are places of my life
Many ways of golden hold
In their surroundings and rife
That before this is untold
Troubled lands near the sea
Folksy tales in the sunshine
Places to come to and be free
Where every hour is just fine

Shining places here and there
With their dreaming to share

Painted colors of the earth
Cloudy curving in the sky
Every moment’s of its worth
Till the hour you say goodbye
Love is easy in its spread
So much gaining to be done
The future’s coming here ahead
With their customs retribution
