Hawkins Hollow Kids Songs
Silver Creek Stone Chorus 058
Song promise: Alice and Callen compare two pears, choose one, leave one, and offer thanks in a way that fits.
The part everyone joins: “Look, choose one, and say your thanks.”
Lyrics
Alice hears the wet leaves tapping.
Callen hears one pear drop low.
Alice sees two pears in one basket.
Callen asks, “Which one should go?”
Look, choose one, and say your thanks.
Take what fits and leave one there.
Tap once softly, name your choice.
Thanks can be a word or gesture.
At the creek bridge, Alice compares them.
One is gold; one stays green.
Callen asks, “Which one feels ready?”
Alice says, “The gold one, please.”
Look, choose one, and say your thanks.
Take what fits and leave one there.
Tap once softly, name your choice.
Thanks can be a word or gesture.
Silver creek stones seem to sparkle.
Raindrop taps pretend to sing.
Make-believe garden beats grow softly
while the breeze moves everything.
By the pasture fence, Callen holds
one basket steady with both wings.
Alice lifts the gold pear gently.
“Thank you” is the word she sings.
Look, choose one, and say your thanks.
Take what fits and leave one there.
Tap once softly, name your choice.
Thanks can be a word or gesture.
Gratitude Tag
Choose with care and leave one resting.
Thank the helper, food, or day.
Words, a sign, or quiet noticing—
each can be a thankful way.
