HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LEONARD!!!

[secretchord]

have a very happy birthday Leonard (and many more please!!!!!)

you've given us so much I bet you don't even realise

[Neophyte]

Happy, Happy Birthday , Leonard!!
I don't know how I missed you the first time around! (I think I was with Janis, too busy chasing after Kris Kristofferson ) But now I'm in the glorious position of discovering all of your songs and poems and writings and art and savoring them at a time when I hadn't expected to come across such a gift! The last thing I think of while immersed in your world is slitting my wrists!!! You've brought me great joy and inspiration, and I am so grateful to you.
Birthday blessings!! May you always feel the joy that you give to all of us!!
Love,
Neophyte

Dear Mr. Cohen

My wish for you has been sent and tonight I will happily collect memberships for Edmontons' Cohen nights arts Society. However, I suspect that you will be happy to hear this message that somehow arrived on my phone messages today. A man named Jim Mc Culloch, who said he worked for Bob Johnston (who produced some of your music) called to say that Bob wanted to wish you a Happy Birthday.
If I had known how to have him contact you, I would have done so. Jim left his number, if you would like it.

Dear Leonard,

Your work should have been illustrated by Gustave Doré.

Here are two of his that make me think of you:

Happy Birthday Leonard! best wishes for the coming year, hope (quite selfishly!) that it's a busy one for you. Thanks for all the music and poetry, and thanks for your fans who I've been lucky enough to meet...

I almost missed it, but it's not quite midnight here. Happy Birthday Mr. Cohen. I was devestated that I missed you when you visited my home town of Manchester, but I guess if peoples path's never cross, it's for a reason. I hope you had a wonderful day and may you have many more.

Lots of love

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEONARD
I remember on your 55th birthday on my way to work the DJ played
' Ain't no cure for love ' and I like many others love your words & music
I don't think anyone would want to be cured from that .
Many happy returns..
