Dear Leonard,

You came so far for beauty through your entire career. Now those who dwell in the near reaches of their comfort can grasp this beauty on a bookshelf or music stand. Please know that those of us here-those whose love reaches into the far corners of this bit of cyberhumanity-thank you for what you have done and wish that the love and admiration that we hold for you contributes to a prosperous and fulfilling 71st year.

Much love,

Joe & Anne Way

To Leonard with Love from Eija & Jarkko

It's about a quarter to midnight where I am, meaning it's close to the 21st, so I think it's a good enough time as any to wish Leonard a monumentally happy 71st birthday, and may this year bring great prosper (despite recent misfortunes) and steady health. Leonard, thank you.

Nuthin' but love,
Jason Simons

Happy Birthday Leonard, and thank you for your music,
It kept us alive in the dark years of Martial law in Poland 20 years ago, your concerts in Poland in March of 1985 felt like a voice from outer space.
Thank you !

Happy birthday Leonard!

Let's share another cup of tea!

tho love is wove
between the night
the bed is needful, impolite

tho love will break
the empty pose
will kill the mirror's shattered rose

tho love will weep
when you arrive
the vivid climax sinks & sighs

tho love will lie
without despair
the victim turns from prey to prayer

barefooted as
an unripe kiss
pain renders love spontaneous

to you for being born,
this poem
& let's talk:

the academy loves you beautiful
come home & each Canadian will give you a dollar
(but lets keep yr mind of that)
I listened to you and saw the dali lama on nfb videorecording today
yr new album's golden as anything you've touched
please write back
