Analysis of The Hill
Jenny cogar 1953 (Webster)
There was a hill
behind the school
the walk was long
the weather cool
in the winter time
hard to climb
so much fun
sleighing down
climbing up
time after time
playing hard
a skating rink
where we grew
finding love
seeing it through
friends forever
from on the Hill
