Mud

My mother had us memorize a lot of poetry when we were growing up. This is one of my favorites that I thought of today while I watched my sweet boy playing in the mud.
Mud is very nice to feel
all squishy squashy between the toes.
I'd rather step in wiggly mud
than smell a yellow rose.
Nobody else but the rosebush knows
how nice mud feels between the toes.

Of all the poems to remember.... I'd think you'd remember one of the ones you worked on for ages. Of course, I remember the one from the phonics book, and I don't think that was my hardest one.
