A poem by myself inspired by your artwork:

When the world isn't looking
I carry them a little farther on my narrow shoulders.

When the world isn't looking
I raise them up on my trembling hands.

When the world isn't looking
I make them better.

When the world isn't looking
I accomplish my tasks.

Only when the world isn't looking,
for I couldn't bear their ridicule.

The weight a soldier feels.
The weight of there longing for home and family.

I love the symbol of how the whole world is on your back. The style fits perfectly with the blue tones.Β Β

Little Boy Blue,
Come blow your horn,
The sheep's in the meadow,
The cow's in the corn;
But where is the boy
Who looks after the sheep?
He's under a haystack,
He's fast asleep.

this is a wonderful artwork reminded me of Boy Blue immidiatlyΒ

Why do I feel like this is my daily life?
So much to carry in one backpack....
Very nicely done.
I like the how it conveys the emotion.

MadHat11D6 [2013-01-16 02:56:31 +0000 UTC]

This is a truly well crafted piece. Now, scrolling by, based on the the colors and drab appearance from far away, I would pass it by. It's not particularly eye catching in that sort of way. For me, what it stirred up is all sorts of emotions. That's one of the most important things that someone can do with a piece of art. Thank you for this piece, the time spent on the piece, and reading this comment if you do get a chance to look at it. Have a good day.
