Mud

Mud

Mud is very nice to feel
All squishy-squash between the toes!
I’d rather wade in wiggly mud
Than smell a yellow rose.

Nobody else but the rosebush knows
How nice mud feels
Between the toes.

Today's photo is of a yellow rose petal that fell off while I was putting my dead flowers in the bin. On picking it up I remembered a nursery rhyme from my childhood

Poem By Polly C Boyden - which I remember from the 1980s Bedtime Stories ladybird book
