Parksville from Castle Walls by Fae Wiedenhoeft

The tide is in and the mountains swim
Inside this twilight plight
From arbutus trees sing songs of little birds

Children laugh as the waves just crash
As this day sighs in to night
And this life is right wrapped in golden light

Seagulls glide as the seashells hide
To plan the games for days to come
Sand castles return under foot to be born

Kites fly high with the dragonflies
As the wind picks up so sweet
And this life is right, wrapped in golden light

Chorus:
And I wonder why the world can’t be at peace
Why cant we all dance like wild flowers in the breeze
And I wonder how we've forgotten such simple things
To stand caught in awe and fly on spirit wings

Sandy clothes and a freckled nose,
Flip-flop toes and dreams ignite
Lovers stroll, hands fold into one

Waves roll home, as the sky’s a dome
Pink and gold a sailors delight
And this life is right wrapped in golden light
