Ode to Leonard Cohen
He romanced the darkness
of the human soul and gave it dignity,
affirming our journey through life’s
never-ending struggle, —
A poet, singer, and songwriter whose
lyrics scorched the heart with sacred fire,
letting in the light through the cracks
of broken dreams, —
The world was his oyster
and the Zen monastery his sanctuary,
but Montreal was his native home
where he was safely buried
in the family plot.
