    Thank you for this prompt. I had not heard of Schnittke and am glad to have found his music.

    I loved this prompt - put me in mind of my birthstone, so I took things from there. Probably not my best but done in under 10 mins - which is a record for me!!

    I've been having Blogger hassles with the links from and to this blog! The one at No. 92 works properly, as far as I can tell - maybe you could delete the other two, Tess?

    Well ... what can I say. I ran 'par accident' into your blog. And I thought ... this is something I would like to do.
    My name is Chevrefeuille and I am a haiku-poet from The Netherlands.
