Un enfant marche sur un chemin de campagne pour aller voir un défilé au village. Ce qu'il voit lors des événements de la journée jusqu'à son retour à la maison et l'heure du coucher lui fait penser au soleil : un jaune d'œuf, une bobine de fil, l'œil d'un oiseau, un cornet de sorbet et un pissenlit.
