As a gifted songwriter who pens words with universal appeal, Dolly Parton does more than compose lines that rhyme, manipulate syllables and create the perfect rhythm in her songs. And that is all before she writes notes that emit tunes that tug at our hearts.

I wondered why, beyond the fact that I’m a sentimental sap who can tear up at the sight of a tree toppled in a storm or of a roadkill possum.
