For my poem, I chose the song, San Francisco (Be Sure to Wear Some Flowers in Your Hair.) I've been looking and looking for and art piece to go with it. I tried searching for flower childern, hippies, and San Francisco. I couldn't find anything I liked. Does any one have any suggestions?
The song goes like this:
"If you're going to San Francisco/ Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair/ If you're going to San Francisco/ You're going to meet some gentle people there."
"For those who come to San Francisco/ Summertime will be a love-in there/ In the streets of San Francisco/ Gentle people with flowers in their hair."
"All across the nation such a strange vibration/ People in motion/ There's a whole generation with a new explantion/ People in motion, people in motion."
(Then it repeats the first verse.)
Please, Please help me. I'm desperate!!!
As a project for Honors English class, I have to fuse a poem and an art piece?
This page has some great photographs (photography is art...) of people in San Francisco at the beach, kind of idle and just pretty pictures.
