Let \(\{w_n\}\) be a second order recurrence sequence. The author proves a recursion formula for certain reciprocal sums whose denominators are products of consecutive elements of \(\{w_n\}\). This extends results of \textit{Brother A. Brousseau} [Fibonacci Q. 7, 143--168 (1969; Zbl 0176.32203)] and \textit{R. S. Melham} [Fibonacci Q. 41, No. 1, 59--62 (2003; Zbl 1058.11014)].
