Florida

Someone else dreams of Florida

Florida

Starlight reflects off the ocean
In someone’s dream of Florida

Flowers bend in an Everglades breeze.
Light of dawn creeps among cypress,
Osceola’s hiding place is safe still,
Ringed by the swamp’s guardians
In someone’s dream of Florida.
Driving through rush hour Miami,
A man caught in the modern could cry.

Starlight reflects off the ocean
In someone’s dream of Florida
