Thesis for Little Green By Joni Mitchell

                 
Joni Mitchell was a poor folk singer when she wrote the song "Little Green" about the daughter that she gave up for adoption. In "Little Green" Joni Mitchell uses a melancholy tone, a shifting 1st and 2nd person point of view and seasonal imagery to illustrate the "sorrow" of giving up her "child" for adoption.
