Elevator poem

Maura Dooley read her poem about getting into an elevator with Leonard Cohen on Womans Hour today


Wonderful, especially for long time fans. It even made me a teeny bit nostalgic for Toronto

As she explained she wrote it several years ago, when Cohen had rather slipped out of the public consciousness, about an incident which really happened to her. Lucky woman. But great for the rest of us to have the poem

She can be heard reading it here
