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.

As for the message, I want to quote the ending of the poem:
For there is always light,
If only we are brave enough to see it,
If only we are brave enough to be it.
This resonates with me even more today than three years ago. ( )
