Leonard on Peaks Island
Leonard on Peaks Island
The Peaks Island (Maine) Cohenists are planning the second annual Peaks LC night for July 9, 2022. It will be on the deck of the Jones Landing facility overlooking beautiful Casco Bay. (See Longfellow's City by the Bay.) There will be professional, semi-professional, and amateur music created and also poetry declaimed. I myself will recite at least one old-man-looking-back poem, from Leonard's later years, a level I have now surpassed. When I first learned of Leonard Cohen, he was 34 and I was 30.
