People Of Place

Non patriots and non nationalists usually are people of place
One might say to the majority they are a different race
To the place they were raised in true they do stay
For as long as they live till their life's last night and day
Most people of place not interested in stories of heroes of war
Or of towns and cities and places of where they live afar
To them the greatest place in the World is their home-place
Where to everyone his or her's is a known and loved face
They have no desire to see great cities far from home
Like London or Paris or New York or Rome
Of familiar surroundings and faces they never do tire
For to travel in them they never feel the desire
With them it is place before Country is how it seems to be
The big World out there they have no wish to see.
