Like a Bird on the Wire

Already missing Leonard Cohen, who passed away yesterday at the age of 82.  A poet with the most amazing voice.  I literally grew up listening to him.  His first album came out in 1967, when I was not yet 10, and my older brothers bought it and the ones that followed and played them over and over.  I knew Leonard Cohen songs as well as I knew Robert Louis Stevenson poems and Laura Ingalls Wilder novels.



For me Bird on the Wire was his signature song, but one of my other favorites is Joan of Arc:



Rest in Peace, dear Leonard.
