    Thanks. I don't know how many more I can generate. More study of Beethoven history might help provide further inspiration. Maybe I'll think on his opera. I read a lot of history of that.

      You could...or you could just listen to something of his and sees what turns up...

        There was a fine lady, Leonora,
        Who endured a most terrible hour.
        Her courage having arisen,
        She went into the prison,
        And triumphed over evil's power.

            I did write one on John Cage some months ago:

            There once was a slacker named Cage
            Who just couldn't earn an honest wage
            And though quite aimless
            He became very famous
            And now is forever on history's page.

              Okay, I finally printed and read through the Pastoral Symphony Haiku and I really like it. I love the way you have Beethoven woven into the end of each of the five verses. Nice work. I will go over it some more as I listen to the 6th, which is quickly becoming one of my favorites.

                Thank you Harvey- glad you like them! I am going to continue writing poems- I like it! Not sure what will be next though...
