C’est d’une beauté silencieuse. Quelques mots seulement, et pourtant un monde entier s’ouvre. Merci pour ce moment de contemplation.

Merci beaucoup pour ces most délicieux. Le silence et la simplicité sont des phénomènes j'aime beaucoup, dans l'écriture mais aussi dans la musique. Je suis très heureux si j'ai réussi à toucher tes sentiments.

Merci sincèrement.

This is beautifully stripped down, holding uncertainty so gently, trusting the silence to carry what can't be expressed. <3

Thank you Petra, I am somehow fascinated with simplicity which is like a kind of silence in music … very pleased it speaks to you …

Petra's avatar

That’s a beautiful way to put it. And you’re most welcome. <3

This is great, Dean. Somehow, the English feels like French.

Every line feels like standing beneath an endless sky, where language ends and knowing begins.Beautifully transcendent!!
