Re: Leonard Has Passed Away
As longtime admirer and fan of Leonard Cohen I am - as so many - very saddened by the news of his passing away and also very sad not having had the opportunity and honour of meeting him in person. Paraphrasing him - we shall now climb on our tears like a rose on its ladder of thorns. Not for long, t...

If It Be Your Will
I'm happy it works for you, James, I really am. And I too think "If It Be Your Will" is a very beautiful song, that I might interpret in a very different way than LC intented... As I wrote before: it's interesting to see what is being read into ones work. I wish you well and look forward t...

Correction
I have to disagree, jimbo - death comes to us all, as to all that lives. There's nothing wrong with finding comfort in believing, this truly can take away fear for anything, yes even from dying. I really do not want to get entangled in true/untrue statements that nobody can verify or prove - that's ...

Interesting
It's interesting to see what is being read into ones work... Nice, though, that poetry can be a universal tool with which everyone digs up her/his own understanding. Apart from not being afraid to cry or to laugh, apart from not really needing a divine icon like some god to be comforted or blessed o...

Here's another one...
Now I see It has never come to me With such devastating clearness before Shocking as primal thoughts Battered and beaten and dying It seemingly lingered in the far corner of my mind As if waiting for some ghostly ship As if humbled in grace It has almost nullified itself Almost forgotten to beg And...

Papers
Don't worry too much about papers, Peter, even Danish ones do not always do the right thing...
Congrats with the album and thumbs up for the song "Happy"!
Warm regards - Dany

Cool
It really is cool, Lizzy and Sarry, noticing your child reacts pretty much the same way to songs/poems than yourself...
It says a lot about the universality and timelessness of the work in question.

The Ballad...
I like to listen to this particular song in my car... You know what's peculiar? Somewhere in the 80's (1986...) I really discovered this song, driving home from work at night, playing it on my cassette recorder in my Ford Sierra... My children were still very young (Nadja 8, David 5). Now, David - a...

Well, you asked for it...
my name
here is the word
that I never lied
here is the sound
of my voice
here is my blood
in this chalice
I pass it on to you
here is my defeat
my conquered love
here is my humility
here is my name
that I call you

Over the great waters
Sarah, Jim, and all the other Visitors, It's just great to see that one's poems reach people even over the great waters... Interesting, Sarah, that 'say a prayer for the cowboy' is used as a kind of 'godspeed'... didn't know that, but it makes sense: I've been having a kind of party with some young ...

Forget me
Forget me layer upon layer I deepen myself I dig myself in and then out again I take a walk and return over and over drown myself swim forth and back again and if I should meet you somewhere in a moment know then that I’m your master and I obey you when I teasingly slowly lean against you remember ...
