    Fall leaves after leaves fall.

    Will my love love my will?

    Herb the sage eats sage, the herb.

    Please me by standing by me, please!

    "Rock of Ages" preceded ages of rock.

    Escher, drawing hands, drew hands drawing Escher.

    In order to stop hunger, stop to order in.

    Blessed are they that believe that they are blessed.

    Parents love to have children; children have to love parents.

    Says Mom, "What do you do?" You do what Mom says.

    Family first sees Holy Father secretly father holy see's first family.

    You know, I did little for you, for little did I know you.

    Did I say you never say "Never say never"? You say I did.

    Good little student does plan future, but future plan does student little good.

    Better doctors like people treated well because well-treated people like doctors better.

    Celebrate! Why not? If happy birthday's your hope, I hope your birthday's happy! If not, why celebrate?

    Pain increase to aching back strikes, and sufferer finds no doctor. Doctor No finds sufferer and strikes back, aching to increase pain.

    First Ladies rule the state, and state the rule -- "Ladies first!"

    Are we not drawn onward, we few, [but obviously not you] to new era?

    IMO, this is much better than your well-known shorter offering.
    (But it's a pity about the missing article.)

    That is an interesting one, it reads slightly differant in the
    opposite direction but is 31 letters long, pretty long. I saw some
    referance to a love letter written that was over two hundred letters
    long, was that you mentioned it? forget the author, might have been
    by the guy that wrote the Inigma Variations, Elgar, he was into puzzles
    and put them in his music.
