Silence is a healing cave (99 haikus +1)

I wrote these haikus and shared them on a wiki and then on Twitter, at the rythm of one haiku every day, between September 1st 2011 to December 7th 2011. This was my contribution to a 99 Days Project created in a virtual international community I have been meeting regurlarly in a metaverse for the last two years and a half. As we use English as a lingua franca, I wrote these haikus in English.
