she sings soft and sweet
as sunlight shines through her soul
sorrow's shadow shifts

she sings soft and sweet
as sunlight shines through her soul
sorrow's shadow shifts
I sing my sorrow and paint nature with joy...Joni Mitchell
Roberta Joan "Joni" Mitchell, born November 7, 1943 is a Canadian singer-songwriter and painter. Mitchell's work is highly respected by critics, and she has deeply influenced fellow musicians in a diverse range of genres. Rolling Stone has called her "one of the greatest songwriters ever", and AllMusic has stated, "When the dust settles, Joni Mitchell may stand as the most important and influential female recording artist of the late 20th century". Her lyrics are noted for their developed poetics, addressing social and environmental ideals alongside personal feelings of romantic longing, confusion, disillusion, and joy. She is one of my most favorite artists.
