Day 4 Harp Cliches HARPRIL 2026

Day 4 – Harp cliché

My harp is a little different than the one King David played… but I like to think we’d get along just fine. I have even considered requesting a seat next to him in the harp section someday—though I am not sure my application has been approved yet.

And yes, I have heard the angel comments. Many times. No, I do not come with wings—just a 44 lb harp and a lot of strings.

Some people make lemonade out of lemons… others are like me and are always harping on something.

I may not be “fit as a fiddle,” but I do carry, load, and transport my harp—often in a black dress, sometimes in heels, which feels like its own accomplishment.

How many clichés did you spot?

​
Honestly, they do not really bother me—this is just a little fun with them. But the one that has always made me pause was:
“I should have known you were a harpist… you have long hair.”
I am still not sure what to do with that one. ​
