Amongst fineries, placed
his book being displayed,
and yonder aloft walls,
enlarged excerpt involves
eyes to indulge, a glimpse
of expectant imprints
that present a mystique
that fulfills statistic
7-and as street talkers advise
5-buyers aware had
7-they made a good investment
5-of a book, their best
interest is self-well
served, only time will tell.

Joanna Daniel August 22, 2024 at 1:09 AM Hi William, what you've done here is cool, though I can't understand your current contest... Especially the hidden part...is it - other lines should rhyme, only the alexandrine lines need not? William Kelii Kekaula August 22, 2024 at 1:54 AM Alexandrine line rhyme every 6th syllable, not much leeway for intervent rhyme. My concept is based on sound and not words, with that said, syllables now become a whole rhyming word. 2 or 3 alphabets don't look like a word that you've extracted from the whole word that had 4 syllables. Say 3rd syl of that 4th syl word Alx claims as its 6th. Since 3rd is claimed, 4th hangs for that 4 syl word. William Kelii Kekaula August 22, 2024 at 1:54 AM 4th syllable now becomes the first syllable as you continue Alx count of six, but you can't split hence variant. 4th rejoins the 3 syllables and the word fully restored, but 3 syl belongs to the 1st Alx, and the 4th syl belongs to the next Alx 6 count syl. Hopefully, your Alexandrine will fall on the last syllable. 3 submitted their entries to be like that.

Andrea Dietrich July 16, 2024 at 4:34 PM Godh, William.This looks really difficult to do. Anyway, thanks for including me on your last winner list. Much appreciated William Kelii Kekaula July 17, 2024 at 11:08 AM Agreed, ergo, after your matter of concern, an addendum was posted to the contest page, finding my answer appropriate ... of adequacy -- subjective. I'm unsure if you've read inklings of the plight I faced re my latter education, so I'll cut to chase via your sharing-- William Kelii Kekaula July 17, 2024 at 11:08 AM from, my bus driver, and on (college) my life was never mines, literally a babe, midst high school mates 3 yrs+, then beards, and gray hair, brains amongst reality--mom, family, self-made-memories ... redemption+retired, Andrea my friend, Aloha William

Eve Roper July 16, 2024 at 8:24 AM Enjoyed reading. Time will tell if the investment was good. I still have a lot I need to stop gazing and read. Blessings my friend William William Kelii Kekaula July 16, 2024 at 9:59 AM Mahalo Eve, of stories that I've read to its completion, I don't remember any disappointments as the basis of prior knowledge before the purchase is a good indicator for me. Thank you my friend. Aloha William
