A Verse For Leonard Poem by LeeAnn Azzopardi

A Verse For Leonard

Rating: 5.0


It was raining
And I saw a bird sitting on a wire
Like a drunken sailor
Too bad, it wasn't old Montreal
It would've been more appropirate

I will admit Leonard was not my favorite singer, but he was one of the best writers poets in the last two centuries. A wonderful tribute fitting to the man.
