WALKING ROUND A FARM
What can I see
One of God’s animals is following me
I won’t turn around but I can hear a sound
Can you guess what animal it could be
It’s a, it’s a, it’s a, it’s a COW!
God made animals big and small
Some I stroke but some I don’t go near at all!
….. It’s a sheep
….. It’s a pig
