I have not seen the glorious, tropical birds in the Amazon Rainforest,
But I have seen the courageous mountains in Scotland, high above the rushing rivers and lush lakes. 

I have not been to the Caribbean islands with its soft, sandy beaches and beautiful, blue sea,
But I have been to the stony beaches on Kenmore’s loch.  

I have not heard the roar of a wild tiger parading and prowling for prey,
But I have heard the cry of doves outside my window, fluttering and dancing in the wind.
