MUSICAL Version HERE

The song is sad "I'm Nobody's Child"


Lyrics:
As I was slowly passing
an orphan's home one day,
I stopped for just a little while
to watch the children play.
Alone a boy was standing
and when I asked him why,
he turned with eyes that could not see
and he began to cry.

I'm nobody's child,
I'm nobody's child.
Just like the flowers
I'm growing wild.
I got no mummy's kisses
I got no daddy's smile.
Nobody wants me,
I'm nobody's child

Terrific painting, Pat!

To find the latest shot in the new galleries with folders, click on 'all photos'. The last one will open up. If people don't have folders, the last one is the top left one. (I don't like the new galleries...) #6663800

Thank you Barbara, I think the new galleries look 'gawdy' and take away from the images.

Too much razzamataz so I never know where to look and the page is spread too wide.

Thankyou for this. I will look at Avri'ls gallery now! ~Pat. #6664506

Oh. Pat. This is wonderful work. I want to take him in my arms and give him a big long hug. The dog is so sweet sitting there with him. This is such a winning image. My Uncle once painted a Boston Terrier sitting out on the porch in the rain. The little dogie just stood there next to an empty milk bottle. It was such a sad scene. The caption read, "Please Be Kind To Me". It hungon the wall of my grandparents home and I would always just sit on the staircase and stare at that shot wishing I could take the little doggie in! Sign. This brought back those memories for me. VERY TOUCHING PAT.
