Induced Interludes Twilight disrobes a soundless star It claims some gentler theme from me Caught lingering in a unified bestilled embrace Beneath a unique spotlight of its gleaming afterglow gently now, gently thus footprints bare none alight butterfly rest on a finger spilled words occasions the breeze the gist of me shadows alongside jaguars Morning star glint after dawns flow Challenge arranges yet another measure An opportune solemn hymn ingratiates breaths Stages of a day follow blissfully edge to edge quietly gently now, gently a better course grace me fingertip traces a fashioned grin a made verse set rhythmically whispers a softly caressed infant coos towards silence Sunsets a mimed score entertains Review disciplined superbly portrayed Persuades descending rays an eyeful adieu Nightwings greet dusk, whorls up into absence gently now, gently ebb star pivots another penitent pose cradles prayers pointed at fingers in lieu of sheeps eyes seals behind dreams, genteel cast...

I bought a large monitor for my laptop to better see, hence, less tv (tho it is hooked-up to be), yet, the idle one sits in the living room for others to polish, and my kids in frequent visits, assisted the GIF + more, Aloha! William
