Hippopostman


HIPPO &
SONGBIRD



The "hippo" in this photo is accompanied by the "songbird" his trusted companion. Together, they have lived in many nations. It seems that children are special fans of the hippo whereas adults sometimes are... well ... rather unkind. Maybe the hearts of children haven't had time to harden yet, to turn to stone, and their minds are still open. They are simple, vulnerable, and they cry (and laugh) rather easily. They see angels more quickly than grown ups. To the hippo, most children are sooooooooooooooo cute!
