Galoshes
by Rhoda W. Bacmeister
Susie’s galoshes
Make splishes and sploshes And slooshes and sloshes, As Susie steps
slowly Along in the slush.The slippery slush
As it slooshes and sloshes, And splishes and sploshes, All round her
galoshes!They stamp and they tramp On the ice and concrete, They get stuck in
the muck and the mud; But Susie likes much best to hear
The Muddy Puddle
by Dennis Lee
I am sitting In the middle
Of a rather Muddy Puddle, With my bottom Full of bubbles
And my rubbers Full of Mud,
While my jacket And my sweater Go on slowly Getting wetter As I very
Slowly settle To the Bottom Of the Mud.
And I find that What a person With a puddle Round his middle Thinks of
mostly In the muddle Is the Muddi- Ness of Mud.
Mud
by Polly Chase Boyden
Mud is very nice to feel
All squishy-squash between the toes! I’d rather wade in wiggly mud Then
smell a yellow rose.
Nobody else but the rosebush knows How nice mud feels
Between the toes.
