Splish, Splash!

by

Splish, splash!

Welly boots and rainbow coats

Puddle jumps and squelchy squeals

Muddy paws and tiny feet

Made this rainy day complete

 

Mud and ice cream stuck to our faces

Carefree laughter as we squished and dashed

Splish, splash, splish splash!

Puddle jumping in mid May

Helps to chase the gloom away!

You are too kind, John! But thankyou. Not my best work, a bit rushed if I'm honest with you. I admit to struggling with the mud theme - life is getting in the way! I very much appreciate you taking the time to comment and I am humbled by your kindness.😌
