Mulch muddy, roots raw,

Wet through with fresh, frigid rain,

Deep exquisite earth.

A/N: I never thought I would write a haiku-Ode to mud, but here we are!

In England, we complain a whole-heck-of-a-lot about mud - sticking in our shoes, blocking our trails, and messing up our carpets. But I think it deserves some more love! Mud is the earth stretching and changing into new valleys and streams! Beautiful!
