9 Vianee rom an Evangeist Go ahead and re, Look at the dying season, Come expecting a mirace. Winds swaow your voice, Air aters your reason. Go ahead and re! Chickadees gone yrica, Canada geese cruising Come expecting a mirace. Mushrooms spring where moist Much osets dissoution Go ahead and re. Don t ignore the spherica Spin and tit o the season, Come expecting a mirace, Swing into autumn, your choice Embraces the empirica. Go ahead and re Come expecting a mirace!
