"Write a poem about getting covered in mud."

______________________________________________

Mucky, yucky, miry mud,

Oozy, gooey, slimy mud,

Rainwater puddles of slippery mud,

Jump in and splatter the runny mud.


Applied on the face, gentle is the fragrant paste of mud,

Cooling on the arms, smooth on the legs, used without waste of mud

Gritty or salty and at times, vile, is the taste of mud,

But to be removed before dried, do make haste of mud.


Hard are the dried lumps of mud,

Softened with water into clumps of mud,

Placed on wheel, a large hump of mud,

Spun by fingers, a portable sump of mud.

Okay, I myself am not sure what the above is - a sort of poem muddy and unclear. It reads incomplete too, though that is because I was at my wits' end as to what I could write further.
