The latest songs play
Lifting spirits in hard times
Candle flames dance too
Tripping the light fantastic
Night banished from eyes
Blacked out windows immure light
Like lovers in tune
Spatially aware in time
Humming closes in
Planes cargo whistles en route
Acapella screams
Deaths fiddler has new tune
Sirens prick the night
Conducting the symphony
The orchestra of the Blitz
