carpe Diem Winter Retreat 2016 "find the silence" #14 walk through the forest

Dear friends,

I has been a few days ago that I posted here at my personal weblog. I am (to) busy with my daily haiku meme Carpe Diem Haiku Kai. Yesterday I started with the new month of Carpe Diem. This month I hope to inspire my visitors with classical music of all times and from all over the globe. Therefore for this Winter Retreat I have tried to bring the two things together.

The above music video gives you Ernesto Cortazar playing Beethoven’s Silence.

This music piece inspired me to create the following haiku:

walk through the forest
only the sound of nature to enjoy
ah! that silence

Dear friends,

Well I was on a role I think because I have another nice submission for the Winter Retreat of Carpe Diem:

through the river
twister takes the fastest path -
birds remain silent

Carpe Diem Winter Retreat 2016 #12 New Year's Eve

Dear friends,

Another submission for the Winter Retreat "find the silence" of Carpe Diem Haiku Kai.

Ah! that silence
the first day of a new year
the wind of last year
plays with bare branches
nothing has changed
