Florence Sings

Florence sings
Singing joy
All night long

Florence cries
Lost of soul
Trap inside

Hope comes now
Within her
To late now

Mama

Florence of Lawrence 
Mother of sense
her learning curve incense
her colorful fence for defence
Progressing up the pyramid with boldness

only narrowly escaped drowning.
She had a penchant for swimming in torrents,
which occasionally occur in Florence.

In Florence lived a lass ,Lisa del Giocondo
with a smile all the world came to know.
So patiently did she pose,
So sad her smile just  comes and goes.

Social reformist Florence Nightingale -
her many good deeds make for a fascinating tale.
Not only a nurse was she content to be.
An innovative statistician was she.

To Florence Had To Succumb

To Florence Had To Succumb

To Florence we frantically did succumb;
Disaster struck and were sad and glum;
Water flowed,
Then slowed;
Results had been grand total of the sum.

Premium Member Death of a Storm

Florence blew her nose, sparred with tears
Darkened our thoughts, loosened our fears.
Driving recklessly, we looked on as she steers,
Unabashedly crashes and dies. So long dear!

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr

Florence

Named as a flowering city;
By a strange happenstance.
For of new ideas, buzzing round
Twas then pollinated.
Which seeded this other glory
Time's renaissance.
Among all the epochs, the one
Lily; highest rated.

Premium Member Vignette-Florence Pieta

They took Him down from the cross,
Joseph,both Mary's,mourned their loss,
From any angle,it was 'finished'-
In dead marble,the moment preserved,
Yet by living power,in Him, we're cured.

"The Lady with the Lamp," Florence Nightingale
  Icon of Victorian culture. Her life, an exciting tale

     White pinafore over colonial dress, she wore
She served as first woman nurse in The Crimean War

Dante Alighieri

He felt his heart awaken
When he saw Beatrice
Coming towards him
One verse was pursuing another verse-
One bliss was pursuing another bliss,
Mysterious like a moon kiss
The sky above Florence was so bright
While his star was dancing every night

Large Impact and Loose Track

Large Impact and Loose Track

Hurricane had hit  and left large impact,
And we soon eventually did loose track;
A severe Florence, 
Produced torrents;
Then what we would lack was way back.

You Can Not See

Behind closed doors,
within haunting walls.
Bewildered cries.
Disturbing calls.

Nosey neighbour,
reports of the scene;
anxiously waiting
to hear, "Not as it seems..."

No Florence Nightingale,
this Lady of the lamp;
inviting in strangers, -
house a massage parlour - vamped.
