Princess Haiku hears the "The Raindrop Prelude in her Dreams"
Princess Haiku has been wandering in her sleep as both insomniacs and ghosts will. When asked where she has has been she only replied, "inside the raindrop."
It is wonderful to have you back, from whatever magical raindrop you were held in. And you could not have chosen a lovelier, more tranquil piece. It will help me sleep, and dream restorative dreams - thank you.

the link is not activating for me from your blog but the Horowitz interpretation of Prelude 15 was easy enough to locate on Youtube.
There is one transition in the first sequence of the melodic line that is among the finest I have ever heard.
Did you know that Prelude 17 was among Clara Schuman's favorite pieces of music? But my own favorite is probably #45.
Glad to see you made it through the raindrop and back, princess.
sorry: I meant opus 45 obviously.
Hi Lee,
It's mysterious how sometimes youtube doesn't work. I run into that a lot myself.
Always happily startled out of my complacency when you return.. from inside the raindrop.
I am a bit of an insomniac myself. I was also finding youtube refusing to work today--I was trying to look at old Bob Marley videos.
better inside a sweet raindrop than a bitter tear.
