Mud Pies




Two handfuls of dirt,
a small cup of water.
Stir.

Three brown, crinkly leaves,
a couple of pebbles.
Mix.

Add tiny pieces of finely shred bark,
a couple of sticks we found in the park,
some grass –  l o n g  and green,
a daisy or two,
a sprinkle of sand,
and it’s ready (!) -

Just for you.
