Hills are alive with the sound of a poet:

Long inspired by Frost's close connection to the New England landscape and views such as the one outside her window, von Trapp [one of those von Trapps] began setting some of Frost's poetry to her own original musical compositions.

Nearly a decade later, she has begun a national tour to promote the CD that resulted, ''Poetic License." It contains five Frost poems set to song, as well as a Shakespeare sonnet, a 17th-century haiku, and her own arrangements of music as diverse as Sting's ''Fragile" and Franz Schubert's ''An Die Musik / Ode to Music."

That will bring us back to D'oh (oh-oh-oh)...
