The sky's motion and the imagination.
Echo—elation.
I heard the echo and heeded my own voice
Echo—rejoice.
Into a gray, flawless sky as the earth sits still
Echo—drill.
A mellow echo of the music's dying beat
Echo—neat.
Dying screams would echo all night long
Echo—along.
Until even death couldn't stop them
Echo—ahem.
War and quake echoes fade with tears
Echo—fears.
Sounds transform the swords
Echo—words.
And what reality delighted the heart
Echo—art.
Hear the rain, recalling the rainstick
Echo—stick.
In its motions, you can just hear a hush
Echo—rush.
Still, amid it all, the echo of your words
Echo—swords.
There was always a rumble in the house
Echo—spouse.
It's a laugh, but the response has grown
Echo—shown.
Because of this, I'm becoming older
Echo—bolder.
When she left, she took the joy with her
Echo—where?
Narcissus stares into lakes, easing time
Echo—sublime.
frosty mirrors reflect flowers falling thin
Echo—within.
Echo wails sadly through canyons, weak
Echo—unique.
Light-loving eyes don't echo into the past
Echo—cast.
Venus is enigmatically linked to Vesper.
Echo—whisper.
Echoes may bestow hope, yet I obey.
Echo—sway.
The sea breeze should bend the willow.
Echo—billow.
Music blooms in the songs we all sing.
Echo—spring.
When I hear the echo of my own thoughts.
Echo—rots.
There is no one else here except myself.
Echo—shelf.
A kiss will not do as much harm as a gun
Echo—fun.
However, its echoes anticipate further
Echo—together.
