For leonard,

JohnThomas

Goodbye Leonard.

 

Goodbye my sensei. My metier. The sage of northern lands from a time long lost to us.

Your life was long. Full. Inspired. 

You loved. Women. Music. Zen. The world. People.

I was in your presence once. It was as if I was watching the bard himself singing songs of love and hate. Songs from rooms. 

Old ideas and recent songs. Like time itself took form into that of a man with charm, compassion and could write god into existance.

 

I will miss you dearly my old friend. You are back into the etheral. Forver floating in the oneness of everything. Smiling and singing.

 

Sincerly, J. Thomas.

    Sad that at a late age was robbed of his savings and life's work. Nice tribute
