Once again it happened,
That voice came from the radio,
Goosebumps covered my body
As her voice reached my heart and soul.
Every time I hear Kathleen sing
I am taken to heaven
To be with her as she sings.
Her voice surrounding me with love,
The love of her wonderful sound
Taken from this earth too quickly.
But her sound lingers on in the ether
And I listen and get lost,
Get lost within the sound
That Kathleen Ferrier has left for me.

- Comment from author about the poem: I like all types of music and if somebody asks me what my favourite is I normally say the piece I am listening to now. I cannot say what is my favourite except when Kathleen Ferrier sings, she is my absolute favourite.
