Leonard Cohen
-Gayathri B. Seetharam
Legendary Canadian singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen
Was known for his poetic lyrics, iconic songs and baritone voice
His deep, resonant voice stirs a response in one's soul
And his voice is a metaphor to music
From his lyrics, I have made a little song for myself:
A thousand kisses deep
I am back on Boogie Street
The limits of the sea
The odds are there to beat
I want a face that's fair this time
And may the spirit of this song
May it rise up pure and free.
