Hide and Seek


Japanese photographer Yokonami Osamu has been on our radar for some time now with its quirky and stunning images.
We’re completely smitten with these photos where children are partly hiding in their world.

Back to School

 
Summer's over ... it was fun
Now it's time to get things done
Catch the bus and be on time
Standing straight in all those lines

Getting homework every day
Do it quick and then go play
Early nights and days so full
Following those school time rules

Do your best and you will see
Life will go by so quickly
For one day when you are grown
Your lessons written all in stone
You will know that in the end
These the best days you will spend
Sharing knowledge doing well
Your future has a lot to tell.
