Do you see me？
I am in the garden。
My name is Lucy。
I see you far up in the sky。
How very high you are！
If you will look down； you can see me。
You can see the flowers； too。
If you would come in the day time； you could see all the children。
You could see us going to school。
But it is time for me to go in now。

I will sell you the green ones for three cents each。 But I must have
more for these yellow ones。 They are sweet apples。

By and by it will set behind the hills。
The sun shines in the day time。
It helps to keep us warm。
It gives us light。
When it goes down we have night。
Then the stars come out and shine。
The moon shines at night； too。
But it is not so bright as the sun。
On some nights the moon does not shine at all。
Do you like to see the moon？
Yes； I like to see it。
I like to see its pretty light。
We can look at the moon； but we can not look at the sun。
It is too bright for us to look at。

Let us sit here in the shade under our old apple tree。
You can look up and see the green leaves and the little green apples。
I should like to have one of the apples。 I wish you would get it for me；
Frank。
Why do you want it？ It is not ripe。 All the apples on the tree are
green； and you must not eat them。
Do you see how little they are？
But the bright sun will shine on them day after day。
They will grow and grow； and after a time they will be ripe； and
yellow； and good to eat。 Then we will come and sit here in the shade；
and you may have as many apples as you can eat。
