Children are in the Field / Дети в поле

All the children are in the field now. Little Lily is with them too. She has a big white hat in her hands and she tries to run with the boys, but she cannot. She is too small yet. Her legs are too weak and short.'Wait for Lily,boys!' Polly says.'Oh, no, let her play alone!' Sam cries, and the children run away.'Wait for me! Wait for me!' Lily cries.But they cannot hear her weak little voice.Lilly sits down. She is all alone. She tries to play with her hat. Then she sees a big black butterfly. It tries to land on a daisy, but cannot, the daisy is too small for such a big butterfly. Then a ladybird comes, it is small and red and black. It lands on Lily's leg and then runs down it. Lily smiles. The lady-bird is very funny with its tiny little tail. Then a green lizard comes out to sit in the sun. There are no clouds in the sky. The birds sing. It is very warm.Lily sits and looks at the flowers; they are blue, yellow, red, and white.The little girl is pleased to be alone. She dozes, sitting in the sun. Now she does not want to run and play. She is sleepy.
