The little drummer boy
This boy was at Agra Train Station one morning. It was a short rickshaw ride from Taj Mahal and lots of tourists came through here.The boy had a little piece of tin and a stick and was banging it around to make music. We gave him some money for being a great performer and then took his picture. He had his face painted by his mother to enhance his performance.

I want him… my last kid is getting to old to live with me any more…so I want this one…OK? can I have him.
I promise to take good care of him…OK?
Just kidding, he’s obviously has a mum and wouldn’t like to trade I guess.
But he looks great. It is a great picture too and even the make up is spotless :-)
It goes in my favorites…rock on

Yes he is adorable….and would probably like a chance at a better life, rather that busking all day so they can eat, but you’d have to travel a long way to get him…..and the chances of finding him in India with the population there…..

It is a real heartbreak how some kids have to grow up. I mean we do have all it takes to change that, so why don’t we.
Seriously I have problems sleeping sometimes thinking about thees kids…..
