AMBIT
Abominable
life obnoxious duty,
Caretaker
of a house tag beauty,
Impressionable
outer sight glow,
Name
the famous mansion to owe, (1)
The
name is PROMISE hallowed lit,
Bright
color floral bedecked hit,
Living
here for decades to maintain,
Life
single loneliness in disdain, (2)
The
community bears the cost well,
PROMISE
lived the family swell,
Four
generations, a century-long,
Most
renowned a family life in song, (3)
Influential
people rich in business,
They
spread worldwide impress,
Affluent,
educated, artist, thinker,
Family
grasped knowledge more, (4)
Respected
the community liked,
Immense
contribution life hiked,
A
significant house of the town link,
In a
few years, fight families sink, (5)
Bitter
quarrel irrupted over right,
Right
turned misnomer tore tight,
A
gruesome sight, violent revenge,
Parents,
siblings, direct avenges, (6)
Same
blood united for a century,
PROMISE
sheltered life mercury,
Mercurial
the love, care, affection,
Dreaming
prosperity commotion, (7)
Overflow
unity, I served faithfully,
Illiterate
knew poison doubtfully,
Suspicion
crept stealthily, strong,
Advice
interpreted claim wrong, (viii)
Accused
each other, and inimical,
Trust
fades quickly, talk minimal,
Death
prowled rooms, suspicious,
One by
one, all left, reign furious, (9)
Link
disconnected cutoff relation,
Fled
far-flung cities dent emotion,
The
mere caretaker was a servant here,
Knew
each family member, fear, (10)
Any of
them little visited, inspect,
Once
tagged PROMISE introspect,
Promised,
lived united gold venom,
Doubted
the action raze suspicion, (11)
Jealousy,
cold anger fueled by visible,
Heard
the angry voice of life crumble,
The
last person in the family gave the keys,
Staying
here for years alone but ease, (12)
Look at
PROMISE beautiful sight,
Flowers
blossom in spring excite,
Feel
tearful brokenhearted write,
To the
great grandfather his right, (13)
Still
living abroad but request,
He once
rebuilt the house to his best,
Squandered
his wealth lovingly,
PROMISE
stood attractive incredibly, (14)
Getting
unwell faithful lifelong,
To hand
over the keys it belongs,
Ambit
to perform as caretaker,
No way
possible life is premature. (15)
