Solve the riddle:
I gently travel through valleys deep, My soft murmur can make you sleep. Little paper boats float on me in rain The merry laughter of the kids I gain. You may sit beside me without any fear, Who am I who skips along, crystal clear?
The answer is 'A Stream' or 'A Brook'. A stream flows gently through valleys, its soft flowing sound is soothing, paper boats float on it during rain, children play beside it happily, and it is safe and clear enough to sit beside without fear.
Explanation
This riddle directly connects to the poem 'Paper Boats' as it mentions paper boats floating in rain. A stream or brook flows through valleys, makes a gentle murmuring sound, is shallow and safe for children to play beside, and has clear water. The reference to 'skips along' echoes the poem's description of the 'running stream.'
