Occasionally we might miss Performers so admired Their talents still get airtime Though it’s years since they’ve expired. A case in point is Leonard Cohen – I knew of his existence, But to his books and concerts somehow I displayed resistance. However, a museum has A very moving show Filled with footage of his singing And so much I didn’t know. I guess no one can stop me, Though I have procrastinated, From becoming one of Leonard’s fans, Although a bit belated.

His name sounds familiar but I may be mixing him up with the amazing Cohen brothers!

I've come to know of him since 'alleluia' became a hit and I've watched some of the you tube clips, he was a remarkable man. I'd love to see this exhibition Ilene it is right up my street:-) hugs Jan xx
