Today is Poetry Friday and our host is Anastasia Suen has a delightful small poem about her first sale on the first snow of the season–30 years ago.
“What’s Up?” by the 4 Non Blondes: Have you heard it?
I heard it, maybe for the first time, yesterday (on my husband’s playlist in the car). I was touched with the line about the “great big hill of hope.” I just want to live on that hill. How about you?
I found this poem in the lyrics.
What’s going on?
Life is still
that great big
hill of hope
destination
I knew
I should
cry sometimes
wake
step
take
a deep breath
I try and I pray
oh my God
all the time
for revolution
You might want to take a minute to listen to this catchy song again (or for the first time).
Or listen to Dolly Parton’s cover of the song. (Thank you for sharing that, Tabatha!)
