The Romanian Boy

  I am writing a song called "The Romanian Boy". It is about the boy in the photo that I will put on here, who is from Transylvania, Romania. (It's on the Russian page of the OAI site, but he is actually from Romania).
  This little boy is also featured in Sue van Schreven's book "Rescue," well a photo of him is.
  The story told about this little boy is that he would yell out to people passing by from the hospital window where he had been abandoned by his parents and would ask them to please take him to his home. He represents for me the orphans over in countries like Romania and Russia who have no one. Most don't even have a birth certificate. As far as the government and other people in the world are concerned they don't exist. But I know they exist, and you know they exist. And we both know that they are in horrible conditions without love, so what are we going to do about it?
