Paddling my Canoe, Traditional Iroquois song (found in Sing through the Seasons: ninety-nine songs for children, compiled and edited by the Society of Brothers)

Gay-o way-o wa-ji-ne_ he-ya he,

Paddling my canoe

Gay-o way-o wa-ji-ne_

He-ya he-ya he,

Paddling my canoe,

Paddling my canoe.

(sing twice)

Sunflakes by Frank Asch 

If sunlight fell like snowflakes,

gleaming yellow and so bright,

we could build a sunman,

we could have a sunball fight,

we could watch the sunflakes drifting in the sky.

We could go sleighing in the middle of July

through sundrifts and sunbanks,

we could ride a sunmobile,

and we could touch sunflakes—

I wonder how they'd feel.
