Dear Leonard,

I wish you a wonderful birthday :)

I fell in love with you in Brisbane last year & am looking forward to Saturday 6th November (which is not too far away!) & we have FRONT ROW SEATS :D :D

This is a painting I've done of my local area & I am using it to welcome you back to our shores :D :D ;-)

Happy Birthday Leonard!

I joined the forum just about a year ago now, my main reason being so that I could wish you Happy Birthday at the time.
Now I feel like I have been kinda transported back to the HUGE BUZZ that I was still feeling, that first time I wrote Happy Birthday, having seen you play live (just the once) only a short while before...
What a nice feeling I'm having right now! :D

Very Best Wishes to you for lovely birthday celebrations, for your own personal new year ahead, and for time and time beyond

In fondest appreciation

Here's what Cavafy had to say about life and time. I wonder what your opinion is.

The days of the future stand in front of us
Like a line of candles all alight----

Golden and warm and lively little candles.
The days that are past are left behind,
A mournful row of candles that are out;
The nearer ones are still smoking,
Candles cold, and melted, candles bent.,
I don't want to see them; their shapes hurt me,
It hurts me to remember the light of them at first.
I look before me at my lighted candles,
I don't want to turn around and see with horror
How quickly the dark line is lengthening,

How quickly the candles that have been put out multiply.


--C.P. Cavafy


Warm wishes for a wonderful birthday and many more years of poetic bliss and love.
Happy birthday, Leonard!! :) :D

Greetings from (still) sunny Greece,
Stamatina. :)
"Oh chosen love, Oh frozen love
Oh tangle of matter and ghost
Oh darling of angels, demons and saints
And the whole broken-hearted host
Gentle this soul..."
