His Only Friend - Briton Riviere Contest

Briton Reiviere has portrayed A boy of low means, no shoes to his feet Clothes are of rags, dirt his blanket Except for a scraggy mutt. His only friend, his warmth, protector. Together they survive Whatever life throws at them So tired, so hungry, so friendless They are a unit within themselves. Sun will be their salvation A river is their bathroom Their watering hole Place to keep cool A boy and dog of nature working as one reliant on each other Their food provide by mother earth fruit, nuts, healthy but not always filling The dog is adapt at finding himself mice They answer to no-one but themselves. link to painting http://www.easyart.com/art-prints/Briton-Riviere/His-Only-Friend-%28Restrike-Etching%29-38473.html
