Little Boy Blue

ECLIPSE Image Number 00380001

Visual Interpretations

Leaping Over Clouds What a day for a daydream

The Innocence of Childhood Do we have to grow up so soon?

At One with Nature To dream in the middle of the day

Old Enough to Know Better Still young enough to dream

A Ne’er Do Well Is this the way you mind your sheep?

What, Me, Dozing? Just resting my eyes
