Treasury of candles imagined reawakening the exemplars who campaigns their coalescing. Prayer resurrecting unkept promises that fault mistiness veils of affections deeply confessed. Sweetly progressed a sinless tinkering of ifs and or buts, realizing an overdue quietus. Deja vu changes us, with sweeping preparations from make-ups to do-overs and cuts to that's a wrap. Formats gap of not to be awry and to prefer an alternate perspective as the dreamer awakes. Ducks and drakes in the ability for the agile to skim and glide the distance o'er the calm and become a better person. Go-getter version had manifested itself as what should have been astir than wallowing in a festering hole. Measuring goal as proclivities satisfy a wandering wonder discerning remote hopes dwelt in the sun's resplendent beacon. Transcendent reason a Q & A session obliging the past and the present on a road less traveled amidst outright amnesty. Torchlight family, emblem of enlightenment and hope for generations--encores, Messiah of Handel's.

I've written Echo Verses a couple of times, Andrea. At first, they were supposedly End Rhymes but I finessed it with a vamped-up version. I'm grateful for your valuable input, my friend! Aloha, William
