Villanelle for Leonard
Posted: Sun Oct 04, 2009 12:27 pm
Dear Friends,
I'm new to this forum so am still finding my feet. I joined after going to see Mr Leonard in Granada. The concert was totally awesome and fulfilled my dream of seeing the Master live (plus all his wonderful backing musicians). I have been listening to Mr Leonard for years and it's both wonderful and amazing that he is back on the stage. How lucky we are!!! How lucky I am - especially to see him in such a beautiful place as Granada. Ok, the stadium was actually a bullring! But seated on the red sand of the bullring floor only added to the poignancy of the evening. Below is the link for a poem I wrote a few months ago as a tribute to Mr L. At the time I was listening non stop to Dear Heather. My humble offering combines music, words and images. It was a bit of an experiment... but you can find it on YouTube if you feel so inclined. I would certainly welcome comments
Thank you, sam
