A beautiful poem written for Joe Biden’s inauguration, Ms. Gorman’s “The Hill We Climb” rightly describes the United States as a country, not striving for perfection, but working toward improvement. While the overarching theme is hope, Ms. Gorman does not whitewash the reality of the social and political divide, the divisiveness and hatred and violence that has risen and thrived in this dark period of our country. It's an anthem meant to be read aloud, with its dynamic cadence, rhymes, and rhythms . I read it through once silently, but found something transformative in reading it aloud the second time. ( ) Amanda Gorman, twenty-two years old, delivered this poem, a call for togetherness, at the presidential inauguration in 2021. This is a powerful poem deep in meaning. Her ability to wordsmith has the poem flowing effortlessly from page to page. Interspersed throughout her poem Amanda incorporates rhyme and alliteration. The poem reads easily, smoothly but the true elegance is in the message. Amanda has crafted a short, beautiful poem for the American people. She ends her brilliant free verse poem with "For there is always light, If only we're brave enough to see it, If only we're brave enough to be it." Contingut aPremisLlistes notables
