When Florence Sings

When Florence sings there is no past the future waits, the present lasts the machine plays its offerings beside her voice when Florence sings When Florence dances in the air it moves like fire through her hair the world is lost in swaying trances and found again when Florence dances With poems of Florence dressed in song the highways stretch so far and long my ghosts that gather in these moments relive their time with poems of Florence Florence struck a chord in me reverberating musically with familiar harmonies Florence struck a chord in me
