She looks absolutely beautiful, dark smouldering beauty that I find so attractive, here’s looking at you kid !

Here is a man who has great depth of feeling, a man who has already been there and done it, told you about it too.

Above all else Leonard is a man of words, words that are written and posed in just the right way so as to make you think, and feel, part of what is going on in his life. He is also calm and serene, through this he conveys great strength and composure, a God like presence fills my mind when I listen to him.

I feel very close to him when reading, or listening, to his work.

I admire they way he can write words into the form he wishes to convey to us, the way he is deliberate in his speech so as not to waste any words, or time.

He is not perfect by any means, but his life has been one of devotion to his craft and art. He has taken great steps to achieve his standing in music, to let others share what he holds within himself.

I admire him for having the patience to practise his Buddihst beliefs, and for being able to become part of their world.

For my tribute to him I would simply like to meet him, to say thank you for what he has given me through his work. The world owes Leonard Cohen a great debt, but it will never be given, or received I fear.
