Let's face it, nobody will read what I'm writing here, especially not Mr. Cohen himself, but if we were only putting down thoughts in writing, when we are sure that they will be read in the end, maybe even from a specific person, there wouldn't be anything to read at all.

So... Happy Birthday!

Dear Leonard, We all wish you a happy birthday and a marvellous year to come. Thank you so much for accompanying us with lyrics and musics and thus turning many difficult aspects of life to unexpected positive experiences with wise words and beautiful tunes.
We are very much looking forward to see you in concert soon, in Perth and Singapore and maybe in Germany next week (Hannover/Dortmund).
Yours faithfully and with deep gratitude, Amrei, Tage, Kristina, Marius and Stella-Sophia

Dear Leonard..

.. as my own birthday is coming up, I'm making my very first Lemon Poppy Seed Cake.. I do wish you could try a piece (if it works out, I mean).. I'm actually counting on this cake to cure all the ills of the world.. so.. it's a tall order.. (anyway, if you're in town there'll be a piece waiting for you)..

.. my happiest, shiniest wishes to you.. on this your 76th birthday..

with love and admiration,

v i o l e t xx x
