I live on a farm with a lot of animals. There is a big, green frog that can spot the rooster on our roof. The rooster can spot me.
I can spot a man that is off to town. Will he go to the shops to get some food for the week, or is he off to post a letter?
The man spots a big cow by the side of the road. The cow is munching on the lush grass. It must taste good.
The cow spots a bird up in the sky. What does it think of the bird? I wonder if the cow would like to fly?
Birds fly all over the town. They can spot a lot of things. This one spots a cat. It had better keep back.
The cat looks down and sees me. I am coming back from school. I like to chat to kids that I see on my way home for supper.
When it is night, I spot a firefly. I love to see fireflies glow in the dark. They look like the stars in the sky.
I feel like the firefly is looking up at the stars. Is it wondering if the stars are fireflies? The stars look down on us all.
There are so many stars in the night sky. It occurs to me that they are all suns. Many of them have planets. Is somebody on a planet looking back at us?
I think of what a being on one of those planets might look like. Do they have a farm? Do they have their own animals and crops?
We head off to bed. When we close our eyes, we cannot spot anything. Maybe we will dream of the things that we spotted through the day.
