Absence Nonsense

Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Aspen is a place to squander. Assess, take some time to ponder. Absinthe causes minds to wander. Aston Martin’s gone; I pawned her. Accent hair to make you blonder. Access ski slopes over yonder; Ascend lifts on high like condors. Accidents bring first responders. Accept when it’s time to launder. Absent money, home grows fonder.

This was tricky; I would not have tried it. It would have taken me much too long; this was marvelously thought-out and brilliantly penned!

Jeff, this is NOT nonsense. It makes perfect sense, and it's marvelously constructed. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Thanks, Milt. I wasn't sure I was going to be able to make a remotely intelligible connection with all those 'A' words, but I'm glad it made sense!
