Travelin’ Man

The want of travel in my veins;
I galaVAnt—the need remains.
Virginia is for lovers, see;
sightseeing my necessity.

I HIt the beaches to be sure;
include Hawaii on my tour.
In mid-pacific, rising high;
Aloha is the reason why.

ATtain your dreams I’ve heard it said;
to Austria is where I’m led.
Vienna where the Danube flows;
I trust my zeal for travel shows.

ExaMIne us, we’re not the same;
it’s Michigan that makes the claim.
I cross the bridge at Mackinac;
part wolverine when I get back.

Yet then I want to have the heat;
Brazil is where I feel complete.
My travels now are said and done;
in Rio I BReathe in the sun.
