    Boy and Pelicans

    Reminds me of this poem by Edward Lear.

    A wonderful bird is the Pelican.
    His beak can hold more than his belly can.
    He can hold in his beak
    Enough food for a week!
    But I'll be darned if I know how the hellican?

    June.

    Oh God of homeless things, look down
    And try to ease the way
    Of all the little weary paws
    That walk the world
    today.

    What a sweet fresh scene. I want to go there and just sit, do nothing, just listening to the waves softly crashing.

    Fantastic painting though a little disquieting! It looks like if the pelicans are wondering whether they would be able to hold the boy too in their beaks ... LOL
